Is there any worse system in the world than Ticketmaster for concerts? Signed up for a mailing list months ago, joined the queue early, randomly assigned a place that meant I had zero chance to buy tickets - and some of the people who succeeded are already selling them for profit 15 mins later...

An ellipsis can completely change how we understand a sentence, a character's intentions, a whole scene. But – especially in comics – I so often see them underused/overused/with two or four or even mo...

Spent the afternoon listening to agents talk about trends in publishing and what they're looking for in a pitch. Love to hear that horror is a big area of growth at the moment, especially blended with other genres. Historical horror, crime horror, SFF horror, middle-grade horror 🖤💀

So here's a thought. How about governments don't rip up copyright law to help out the chancers chasing this destructive mirage, but pivot to defending and supporting the creative industries which make money for their economies.
Jim Covello, Head of Global Equity Research at Goldman Sachs, argues that although AI looks like it’ll attract US$1 trillion in investment in the coming years, there really isn’t a US$1 trillion problem for it to solve. Someone’s going to lose a lot of money. thefutureeconomy.ca/op-eds/what-...
What if Generative AI Signals Decline and Stagnation, Not a Productivity Boost? - TheFutureEconomy.ca
Kean D. Birch from York University argues that generative AI signals economic stagnation rather than a productivity boost.

Impossible to resist this very boopable snoot. (I promise this hasn't turned into a purely cat-based account. Writing and editing content will return at some point!)

My book The Matrix Illuminated sold 289 copies in its lifetime since 2021 (released just before Resurrections). One person read it all on Kindle Unlimited this month, and it sold another 4 copies, with 6 sold last month, particularly around the Christmas days.
Hope they enjoy it!

We can't wait to welcome our new kitty this week! Her rescuers do brilliant work, and so I'm sharing their fundraiser for the costs not covered by her adoption fee - just in case anyone else is looking for a good deed for the day 🐈❤️

So far this January, I've been editing sequels (book 4 of one series and book 3 of another). In both cases, I've worked with the author since their first books, and oh my god, I'm so enjoying revisiting these worlds and these characters again!
