True events: I have been circled & cornered by #MartytheRobot in #frozensection, and an employee did have to redirect #Marty so I could escape—how could I not write the comedic, satirical #fakenewsstory ?!

If my second-grade self who was just learning to write & starting to dream of being a #writer & #author knew I am now #writing a #genrebending #memoir that has #poetry, #epistles, and #hermitcrabessays intermixed with traditional #prose, she'd be wonderstruck.

"Averting my eyes from my works-in-progress, I’m told, seems counterproductive. This, though, grants me the opportunity to discern optimal measures for refining my work into the best version it can be."

One thing I've been musing on is the difference between "What is AAC?", "Who is an AAC user?" and "Who uses AAC?"

At its most inclusive, ASHA says "AAC means all of the ways that someone communicates besides talking."

But they don't usually really mean that #AutChat

Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC)

Children and adults with severe speech or language problems may need to find other ways to communicate. There are many types of AAC that they can use. Speech-language pathologists, or SLPs, can help.

Will #cwcon/#cwcon25 participants automatically receive notification when the dates are set for #cwcon26?

Adding the dates for the next C & W conference to my calendar as soon as possible each year is a highly prioritized tradition! A conference that cannot be missed! 😉🥰

#Editing a journal is more than selecting and proofing texts. It is ensuring that the journal adequately and accurately reflects the [diverse] populations of the journal's contributors and readers.

#Writing is thinking. If we outsource writing because of #AI, are we outsourcing thinking as well? - Tham

Does #AI really save time in #writing, or does it ADD tasks to our lists of to-dos because of its instigation of extra editing and consideration of how well it has conveyed our ideas? Are we diminishing writing quality by eliminating human deliberations over content and style? - Tham

What does it mean to be an #author in the era of #AI? If AI is used to #write or #edit part or all of a piece, can humans really claim full #authorship?
