What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

Got an email pitching an AI agent that could make and upload entire books - and their audiobook versions - with the touch of a button.
The same day I also received an email from someone asking if they should go with traditional or self publishing.

I was in an even worse position than I am now in 2011, when I started self-publishing and brought enough $ in monthly to cover rent.
I could not do that now. My skills are 15 years sharper, but market discovery is dead. AI killed the environment that made it possible for me to get by as an author.

So it's Black History Month and that means I think it's a good time to get familiar with Mike Pondsmith, if you're not already.
When you see R. Talsorian Games, that's him. When you see Cyberpunk 2077, that's his world.
Mekton, Castle Falkenstein, also him.
