I wrote about my experiences being sexually exploited as a child, and what we need to do to make sure AI doesn’t make that a reality for millions of children.

If it's still the 12 days of Christmas, then day drinking isn't a problem. Those are the rules.

Essentially, I think that LLM-generated dialogue only makes sense if you believe that the product of writing is words.

But the product of writing isn't words, any more than the product of justice is prisoners, or the product of love is weddings. The product of writing is meaning.

I admit the procrastination may have gone a little far now.

The writing's going great - I spent the last two hours rearranging my Spotify playlist for it's 'soundtrack'. No, I haven't added any words to the book, why?

I have reached the point where I know what the cover for the next book will be, which means I get to email my cover artist! Her emails always make me smile, and I get to see excellent art coming together. One of the best stages of writing.

It just keeps going! Why won't it stop? I'm so tired.

Can we please agree to stop removing EM dashes and 'big words' from our books because the barely literate think those are how you spot AI?

I'm ahead of the curve anyway, because I don't know any big words.

Well that's a first. I just got a splinter under my thumbnail, but the splinter was a 2mm beard hair. It hurt!

I'm not usually one to get excited for Christmas, but I can't wait for it to be socially acceptable to day drink for a week.

As it has now been over a year since I posted anything here, I decided I should write something. I don't know what, but I'm sure my fingers will think of something if I just keep typing.

Jesus. I Googled myself, as one does, and one of the questions that showed was 'What is Ross Harrison's legacy?' I was going to write, but apparently I have a crisis to experience.

I suppose I should mention it here, too: Church of the Assassin is FREE until the end of the month! The end of the third book is in sight...

It is not too much of an exaggeration to say that Kat saved Aetherbound, because I was spinning in circles and she was extremely insightful.
I have openings in my editing calendar. I do developmental edits of novellas and novels, and work with multiple genres. More information here: www.kathowardbooks.com/editing and I'm always happy to answer questions.

Who needs a professional book trailer when you have DaVinci Resolve and a DAW?

Me, you say?

Should I be concerned that I'm still only about halfway through, even though the word count is almost the same as the finished previous books?

It's time again as a notable Italian-American to note Christopher Columbus was an absolute piece of shit human who didn't land anywhere near this actual country so why the fuck should he stop the mail for the whole day

I was looking through an old phone the other day and discovered this picture of my kitten finding out about the outside world for the first time.

Late happy #caturday!

Some days, I write 4k words in a few hours. Today, I spent two hours trying to remember the word 'vigilance'.

I appreciate that if I type 'Au' into Google, it thinks that obviously either I need car parts from AutoDoc or to look at pictures of Audrey Hepburn. The answer, of course, is yes.
