Saw this piece at an art exhibition opening last night. It was untitled, but I'm going to call it "Editing"

Okay, so The Armchair Detectives might not have won the Booker Prize yesterday. But to be fair, I didn't enter it in the first place. www.amazon.co.uk/Armchair-Det...

For example, this afternoon's AI-trawled approach: "Participation is completely free, with only a small one-time reservation fee"

Much less worried about AI taking my job given the scammers using it to approach me re. help "marketing my new book". Particularly because they're mistakenly targeting the German edition of a novel that's fifteen years old.

Just seen a house advertised as "priced to sell". As opposed to?

Very exciting to see The Armchair Detectives at the Frankfurt Book Fair!

I'd like to think that somewhere, there's a budding Scottish lowcost airline entrepreneur cursing the fact that "McFly" is already taken.

It's reviews like this that make being a novelist worthwhile. Along with the royalty cheques.
