Normally I'd feel some kind of disappointment/sadness when I lose a ghostwriting client, but that happened a couple of days ago and all I felt was relief. Ghosting's such an energy suck for so little reward now.

The first Lockwood's goal is below, to begin building up an income. #TheLockwoods

Good morning everyone

It's only the 3rd day of the year so it's okay if you haven't completed any artwork yet. The year is just beginning and the holidays were long. It's okay to take some time to relax. You don't need to hit the ground running.

Rest is important too. 💙✨

You know... It's finally dawning on me why I can't get anything fucking done.

In what reality does a person wake up to FUCKING BATSHIT NEWS *every* fucking morning and want to do anything but numb the hell out just to try and make it through the day.

In what fucking reality.

Reading on the web is reading. Reading has never been so varied in the way we access it. Young people are growing up in an entirely different reading environment to the one people my age knew a generation ago.
E-books are reading.
Comics are reading.
Genre is reading.
Fanfic is reading.
Text-based games are reading.
Audiobooks are reading.
Braille books are reading.
Non-fiction is reading.
Picture books are reading.
There is no single way to read, nor is any reading style more worthy than another.

I see what's happening, and, as much as I keep up with the news, one of the most important things to me is that I focus on what makes life a little easier. We always need something to take our minds off the worst of life, so I'll keep writing and posting, no matter what.

Sometimes I feel like all I do is post about the Lockwoods, but there's more to me than just my writing.

I'm a voracious reader, and, if I don't ration myself, I can easily read a book a night. At the moment I'm reading How to Survive Camping: The Man with No Shadow, by Bonnie Quinn.

The very beginning of the Lockwoods, in webnovel form. Originally I started this as SimsLit, because I'd been inspired by other stories I'd seen, and changed this when EA announced the buyout by Saudi Arabia, among others. Now I'm rewriting the old, alongside starting some new arcs.

2026 is the year of the Lockwoods. After ghosting for over a decade I want to focus on something creative for me for the first time in far too long. The world is not how it was. GenAI has changed everything, but, as you all know, I'm very much against it.

If ai bros start flooding bsky the best thing to do is not respond to their posts. Just block. I've learned it's pointless to debate them.

The best thing to do is suffocate them by ignoring.

They are lazy and want instant gratification that's why they use ai..don't give the satisfaction.

this is my end of the year plea to storytellers to STOP letting other people dictate your stories and your posts—readers are meant to be disappointed sometimes. they can misunderstand or disagree and that’s okay. reading is an emotional experience but pleasing everyone isn’t why stories are told

It’s a shame that the people who criticise other adults for playing video games will never understand how much they have helped some people through difficult times.

You’re right, that is unpopular. And selfish. And greedy.

And let’s so fucking for real - JKR was NEVER an indie author.

Humans > slop machine.
My best recent anecdote—we were asked to give a more “story telling” design presentation at work this holiday. The other team used chatgpt to write theirs, advised me to do the same.

My team took time to write something we were all happy with & nailed it. The other team’s was a total crash and burn
always baffles me when I see “but writers/creatives/etc. HAVE to use AI to remain competitive!”

besides AI writing being worse, there’s no evidence it gives any real advantage over not using it. you’d still have to fix all its screw ups, which takes time you could use to do it right the first time.

I will say that "generative AI" has gotten so blurred as a term that things like the procedural generation that games have been using since forever (MINECRAFT, TERRARIA, DWARF FORTRESS, DAGGERFALL) are sometimes getting lumped in there, which is silly, but yes, technicalities aside, this.
I do not want it in a box, I do not want it with a fox, I do not want it till I die, I DO NOT WANT FUCKING GEN AI.
I don't want gen AI in my browser.
I don't want gen AI in my PC.
I don't want gen AI in my art.
I don't want gen AI in my games.
I don't want gen AI in my music.
I don't want gen AI in my movies.
I don't want gen AI in my books.
I don't want gen AI in my cart.
I don't want gen AI in my LIFE.

Make friends for the sake of making friends, not to get ahead in your career. If the latter happens as a result, cool! If it doesn't, also cool. Either way, you have friends. And if they're good friends, they'll help you become a better and more well-rounded version of yourself. That's always good ❤️

No, we don't have to accept hallucinatory, ecosidic creative stealing LLMs. The genie not only can be put back in the bottle, we need to do so. Accepting this as the state of affairs that we have to accept and going forward is an enormous mistake.

These motherfuckers who shill AI keep saying 'the genie is out of the bottle'.

You realise that stories are full of ways to trick the fucking genie back into the bottle, right?

You keep using that metaphor but I do not think it means what you think it means.
