First actual sale this morning was another copy of the Good Omens graphic novel adapted by @colleendoran.bsky.social - only available in very select bookshops!

That's just over half of our copies now sold, once they're gone that's it!

Just a reminder that ChatGPT cannot betray anyone because it doesn’t have feelings or motives or thoughts
ChatGPT promised to help her find her soulmate. Then it betrayed her
ChatGPT sent screenwriter Micky Small down a fantastical rabbit hole. Now, she's finding her way out.

I'm seeing an uptick in "royalty recovery" scams like this one.

On left is the solicitation--not a phishing scam, as one might suspect from the paragraph boxed in red.

On right: the scammer replies to the author's excited questions & reveals the "associated fee" that's the purpose of the scam.

I bought the Fantagraphics box set that collects the first few years of “Prince Valiant” and another, later volume. Such stunning and influential art.

After more than a century of devastation from deadly blight, the iconic American chestnut tree could be brought back from the brink of extinction thanks to novel genomic tools and carefully bred hybrids, a Science study finds.

I am posting some photos of the NASA Goddard library taken yesterday. The photos were NOT taken by library employees - but rather by others at NASA Goddard . Word has it that trucks are arriving this weekend to begin removal of these boxes. More: nasawatch.com/trumpspace/n... #NASA

So many mixed feelings about everything, keeping my internet use to a minimum, I jump scare, I elate, I go down, I go up. I just need to work. That's all.

The first book of today was this graphic novel adaptation of Good Omens by Colleen Doran. It’s a beautiful version, about three years in the making… at least

That makes today a great day to join my Patreon or book me for a writing or editing gig.

I’m very good at what I do.

(If you have a seamstress gig for my wife, even just needing some alterations — in the LA area — that works, too.)
