Happy Thanksgiving to anyone who sees this post.

I'm grateful for many things, but today I'm grateful that I never gave up, and I keep writing, every. single. day.

I'm also grateful for all the writers out there, because I also read, every. single. day.

Happy Halloween! I dropped the ball this year, I had an Alien: Earth costume (appliance) ready to go (T. Ocellus - The Alien Eye) and then realized I couldn't drive or work with one eye covered and no glasses. Lol.

Question about Blue Sky...

When I/we post, who sees it?

Certainly not all my followers. And when I hashtag, yes, it pops up in that thread, but then gets quickly buried by other posts.

And does anyone who is NOT my follower see it? Do any threads or groups I don't hashtag?

Anybody know?

Happy Saturday! Thinking about the days of week, I wonder how many writers make their stories work in terms of the passage of time? During revisions, I judge how long each event should take, and then try to make the times and days sort of work.

Excited to announce that "The Murder Algorithm" continues to receive recognition. Recently Short Listed by the Chanticleer Int'l Book Awards! Maybe it makes the Semi Finals next! 🤓

Within 10 minutes I just saw two AI made commercials. One on line for Amazon, and one on TV. I could tell instantly that they were AI (I work in the field).

But soon, full ads will not only look perfectly real, they will be instantly tailored to households and individuals.

Waymo's self driving cars are significantly safer than human driven, by 70% or more! With that kind of increased safety, will humans even be allowed to drive in the future (other than recreationally)?

I love the feeling of figuring out that your story has a problem, and immediately realizing what a solution is, knowing that it will make the story so much better.

Just finished the first draft of my next novel, a near future sci fi techno thriller. Now comes the hard work; "going back and making it seem like I knew what I was doing all along" (paraphrasing @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com).

In June of 1999, Spielberg invited about 15 experts to a three-day think tank to brainstorm what the future might look like for The Minority Report.

It is so hard to predict the future! For instance, the story (by PKD) had 3 almost magical "precogs." In reality, we will actually have predictive AI.

Wishing any dads out there a happy Father's Day. My dad is in his mid eighties now and is getting very introspective/retrospective (there's probably a German word for that). I always remind him that my love of reading science fiction came from him, and he agrees, that's great success. 🤓

On my way to an FYC event for The Daily Show in Hollywood. One of the advantages of living in LA and being a member of The Academy is how much fun awards season can be!

June is "Focus on Writing" month for me. I need to jumpstart my writing productivity. It's goal time. No vegging in front of the tube without also working on the book. Time to finish my next novel and make it great!

One of the fake book names (The Last Algorithm) was close to the name of my book (The Murder Algorithm), and for a moment I thought, that probably would have been a good mistake for me, because suddenly thousands of people would have been looking for my title. 🙂
This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

Just returned to Los Angeles from London. Maybe it is because Los Angeles is so spread out, but if felt like there were more bookstores in London.

This fun sci-fi film is being released in AMC theaters in the US on May 9th. Originally in Swedish, it has been translated to English using the real actors' voices, using AI to make their mouths move correctly.

This is groundbreaking, ethical, and highly recommended.
