I wanted to get involved in #Swordtember this year, but I wasn't sure that I would be able to do an image each day. What I CAN do is a little bit of prompt-based worldbuilding everyday!
I'm using Faith Shaffer's list, and for day one, I present the "Shell" prompt!

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.

It took 1.5 years but I finally managed to finish up a gift drawing I started for my BiL. It's of his D&D character that he plays in my Monday game. It went through 4 iterations before this one, and I hated them all!
Not sharing it for the moment, because HE hasn't seen it yet, but I might soon.

Desperately looking for anyone in Scotland to foster a 2 year old female cat named Bambi. Incredibly affectionate and friendly. Indoor-only. Whether temporary (a few weeks) or longer term.
She's going to be put to sleep otherwise -- due to a heart issue that won't affect her for another 12 months

That awkward moment when you suddenly realise that you are either a pen snob or your 'tism presents as a need for a very specific selection of writing implements because others just don't "feel right"...

2024: Rachel Lense created a Pride flag out of NASA pics.
2025: The incoming presidential administration deleted it.
2026: Ember tracked down the constituent images, rebuilt the composite, and added additional images to update the flag to the more inclusive, current version.

Also, thanks to the feedback from Team Dunsany, (most notably @chrislaumanson.bsky.social ) I've got what I think is the final version of the cover of Kith of the Elf Folk and others.
It looks very much like this.

So I loathe having to do this with everyone else hurting right now but the repairs are going to be costly and I would rather earn if I can.
I’ve already had to pay for parts today but labor is going to be more so if you have any work, I’m real good at that.
A share would be rad as well.

I like the idea of Slop Evader, but it makes me sad that so many new creators would miss out on being seen on it.
My own website wouldn't show up on it because it was created AFTER ChatGPT was released, so... I guess I just have to miserably settle for my work being hidden amongst the slop...?
