So, every February 14th since 2011 on Spain we share this meme of The lord of the Rings and different versions to celebrate Valentine's Day.
It's "San Valentín" in Spanish so it sounds very similar to "Sam va lentín" (Sam walks slowly). Even Sean Astin noticed us so it's special to us! ❤️

The book club scam has taken an exciting new leap forward. I got one today from a "curated literary platform and newsletter" that, unusually, offered a link to its website. I'm in edits, so obviously I took the opportunity to procrastinate. /1

The other thing is that if you’re using a dozen pen names, you aren’t expecting people to read one of your books and WANT to read the next one. You’re gambling on them taking a chance on a new author, over and over. Romance readers read a LOT, but they’re not stupid.
This article is incredible. It says everything us actual authors have been saying for years, but with a smile on its face.
“If you hide that there’s A.I., it sells just fine,” she said.
Uh huh? Tell me more. Like how you published 19 novels to sell 20,000 copies. An average of 1000 copies a title.

there's so much disrespect of romance writers and romance readers baked into the idea that AI-driven production of novels is 'better'. as if writing romance isn't skillful, hard and joyous work. as if romance readers aren't discerning, loyal and savvy.

Someone who churns out hundreds of AI "books" and makes money tricking people into buying them thinking they're getting a novel isn't a writer. They're a scammer.
They're no more an author than a snake oil salesman is a doctor. It's just fundamentally a different thing.
