I've written 4 non-fiction books, at least 3 of which were pirated by AI. To date, I've seen zero recognition for that. I'm also being soul-crushed by the query process for an actual, human-written novel. 1/2 #writingcommunity #writesky #amquerying

Contact Speaker of the House Jon Burns to tell him that book bans are off the table.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”
