AI will reshape publishing jobs, from editorial and production to marketing, sales and operations. The question is not whether this happens, but who shapes these changes, says Bec Evans 👇 #BookSky

That’s four of these wee acrylic canvases for Moevember. A fun little diversion from all the other diversions I do.

35 has my best attempt at a Kirby style character in it- I’m having a lot of fun this volume just running with silly ideas I have on the day. It’s a change of pace but I think my readers’ll dig it.

it's the COVID psychic damage
The biggest blackpill for me was a poll that found that, despite Trump's abysmal approvals and Dems cleaning house lately, an hypothetical 2024 rematch would still be a tossup. The insane reality is that a majority of US voters really experienced the Biden years as some kind of epochal catastrophe!
“I’m not gonna lie to you about the economy like Biden and trump and say it was great“
“Achtually the economy was great under Biden, the guy we dumped 4 months out from the general here are some charts“
If you think the 100% true fact that the economy was good under Biden is relevant youre dumb

Hey fun fact I don't sell any of my books on Am*zon and I never have. If you ever see one of my books on Amazon that's actually a drop shipper trying to undercut honest publishers and physical stores by taking advantage of wholesale deals through distributors. Bad stuff!

Because "we actually spent time and money on this" is an infinitely better sales pitch than "we made a computer hallucinate this in order to save a negligible amount of money, and it sucks"
Indie game developers have a new sales pitch: being ‘AI free’

I don't understand how anyone can watch how blatantly Grok is manipulated to answer the way ownership desires it to and then act like the other LLM chatbots couldn't possibly be similarly but less obviously compromised to produce responses in whatever way corporate interests and priorities dictate.
