I'm seeing the discourse happening right now, and I would like to gently remind everyone that libraries still exist.

I know! I know! It feels like all good things have been dismantled in this the year of our Lord 2025, but libraries are, in fact, still in existence.

Pulling just one quote from this excellent thread: "When all you get are nos, the story will be your yes."
I think one of the hardest things about being a career writer in traditional publishing is that writing attracts the neurodivergent brain while the variable reinforcement schedule punishes it. We are all the rat at the water bottle, waiting for the hit of cocaine. You get one win, and you need MORE.

I really like the Surrey International Writer's Festival. It should be happening right now. But they canceled their event because of the workers who are fighting for a fair deal from the hotel that usually hosts the convention.

It was the right thing to do, but the cost to SIWC was $$$$$. help?

I've been thinking about this video since yesterday, scary and amazing in equal amounts. Ignore the moving gate, look at the background
This is mind-blowing! I have never seen footage of the slip that occurs during an earthquake! Here you see the slip that occurred during the Myanmar earthquake. 🤯
