Sorcery, on the other hand, originally came out of a NaNoWriMo night where I wrote Fest doing something inexplicable and then had to backwork how he'd been able to do it.

NaNoWriMo, and now California College of the Arts prove that art attempting to partner with its own grim reaper does nothing but further the stink of our own death. GenAI can write all the python unit tests it wants, but it’ll have to wrestle the pen and brush out of my cold dead fingers.

Been trying to Create A Little. And yeah, I have the Apps I'm working on. but I've been putting effort into edits on the very first nanowrimo I did in 2005, One of the chapters at the front that is a good scene/world setting I might extract as a stand-alone short,

I'm gathering proof of plagiarism since my parents are moving. I'm still bitter that someone stole my entire book outline and then published it through a KAD literary agent. I requested help on Nanowrimo and then they stole my outline and whitened it.
