Sorry I've been absent for a while I was in a coma. I sure hope nothing happened to my favourite writers festival in Bendig, Australia while I was under.

Started to make this a habit - writing at a cafe during lunch. Starting to think I should lock in on one creative pursuit.

It's not always like this, but I love when it is. Wouldn't want to be flying in to Albury this morning though.

Found out about the Blue Ocean Rising Tide thing about two days before it closed, so had to sprint to collate some trailers from projects that I hadn't touched in a while, or had restarted a few times. Of the ones I submitted, got placings of 369, 399, 569 and 652.

still feeling like there's a whole untapped universe of narrative sitting on the edge of the page. nothing's inspired me as strong as tp, and the red on black association with traffic keeps popping up as a visual for my own slice of a mysterious dream world.

I keep seeing reports of non-AI users being told that an AI detector has dubbed their work AI generated, and it makes me insane because:
1) AI detection tools *are themselves AI* and thus entirely bullshit; and
2) if an AI was trained on your works, of COURSE it’ll flag you as sounding “like” AI!

Why are these gems in my theme notes and not the actual writing, what are you doing ME.
"I would be happy if…" is the poison and the lure of the feeder. It formed in agony, wrapped in joy.
Life is in falling short, the uneven ground clung to, not the marble plinth standing over surrounds.

Despite it all, I still want to write this book. It's rough to stay motivated while the world seems set on divesting themselves from the responsibility of story, but there's some guiding lights still.
