Most near death experiences are pretty anticlimactic. We tend to think “faced down a gun wielding maniac”, but can’t really process the hugeness of “went to the dentist” or “finished a round of antibiotics”

But the point (there is a point) is, people fetishise the idea over the hard work of plotting and character development and research and internal consistency and just writing the fucker, because the Idea is the sparkly magic bit.
And this is what makes them put value in the AI prompt.

I am obsessed with being on peoples’ side through the creative process.
I just think having someone give a shit about what you’re working on can be the difference between something getting made or not.
That’s why I run my writers meetings & retreats and the NY reboot: building a gang of caring.

Someone just asked me “what’s the takeaway” from my book, A Passion For Passion, the most impossible question to answer.
I guess the underlying message is that silliness is worthwhile and funny things are fun to make funny, but I don’t really know how to put that into optimiser-tech-bro-speak.

Thoroughly enjoying the audiobook of @alicefraser.bsky.social 's A Passion for Passion - in particular wondering how many takes it took for Alice to get through some of the book blurbs without collapsing into giggles. Enough barely suppressed laughter to make this the definitive version for sure!
