This little boy and his family are here legally as asylum seekers and have no deportation orders. They took him and his father and then used him as bait to try to draw out other family members. He's five.

Our country has no soul.

I do not use AI to write for me. I do use em dashes, though, so I guess I'm screwed.

If you want to see the banned 60 Minutes segment on CECOT: www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Canadians aired it and someone filmed it. YouTube has been pulling it down so I found it on Mueller She Wrote.

It's not graphic or even any new info, but Bari Weiss wasn't having it.
WATCH: The 60 Minutes CECOT Segment
I was sent the CECOT segment anonymously in a group chat.

It appears as though SFWA has had a very quick change of heart and is now back on the right side of this. Shouldn't have happened in the first place. New Nebula Awards eligibility rules for generated text are now:

We need your help saving the life of a mother & grandmother who was snatched and grabbed in Lenoir, NC by CBP/ICE. She will likely be killed if she is deported back to Honduras. We are in a race against time. Please share. Link to donate: donorbox.org/save-sarais-...
Save Sarai! Bring her back home to her family and North Carolina.

As a person living in a small town more than an hour away from a city, with lots of bigger towns all around them...

Yes, ICE/CBP can and will come to your small town. They're in mine.

Prepare now.

I miss my writing group, because while I believe all novelists engage in world building, going from an alternate present to a fantasy world is kind of breaking my brain. I understand all of the maps and glossaries and wikis now and would like to discuss with my friends. 😫

I had an issue recently with someone on here, and I've been reflecting on whether or not I did the right thing.

If you're pretending to have a genuine conversation with someone, but really you're just waiting for a sales opportunity, people can tell. Even this autistic person can tell.

The third draft of It's the End, Pennie Wilson has been sent to a few beta readers. I won't write another unless it's directed by a professional. The biggest change is a new flashback chapter where Pennie struggles to socialize appropriately with people who do not have her best interests at heart.

Recently spent a little time away. Rode a coaster bike to coffee shops to write. Read on the beach and listened to the surf. Explored an abandoned village. Watched my dad fish.

In an effort to push this account somewhat closer to being on-topic, occasionally, I want to celebrate that I gave myself permission to pay for the writer's conference package that comes with networking events and a pitch. If I can be a safety marshal at protests, I can do this. #pitch

Just a reminder that Puerto Ricans are Americans. Also... If you have a problem with hearing languages you don't speak, YOU are the problem.

I was writing a letter to the editor of my local paper regarding homelessness, and was debating if a .gov site would still be a reliable source for my research, but... No, it's a council that doesn't exist anymore and the website, while still indexed, is down. I used the Way Back Machine. RIP USICH.

While you're busy trying to get people fired, perhaps you could consider focusing that energy on Brian Kilmeade of Fox News, who suggested homeless people should be subject to "involuntary lethal injection."

He said: "Just kill them."
