2025 is the year.
I am working on a novel during the morning and short stories at night.

I put on a jacket, gloves, boots, hat, and went for a very long cold walk.

Sticker Shock ⚡️
I went to a bookstore and a 50 thousand word paperback novella was $17 USD
Most books were easily over $35
I don’t begrudge anyone for making a living, but I think self-published authors are selling themselves short when they charge a dollar for an ebook

I deleted my X account, lost all my data, and signed back up several months later.
I have followed no one since signing back up, but X has me following several blue check accounts.
Suspicious. 🤨

I snuck back onto X for a few minutes to promote Banned Book Week.
My one and only post on X was immediately censored by Elon Musk, his employees, and/or his all knowing Ai, Grok.
The post.
The censorship.
The nerve of me saying books shouldn’t be banned. 🤣

Happy Saturday. ❄️
Lost electricity for next 24 hours, so I did the smart thing.
I went to a Wegmans grocery store, bought a doughnut, soda, and started writing on my poor old taped up iPad.
No electricity, cold enough to snow - it’s going to be a long winter.

He completely disappeared for the summer. Winterish weather returns and so does he.
He’s an enigma.
He’s hungry.
He’s either a feral, stray, or scammer?

One.
Volume one was great. I am hoping volume two will be just as good.
It’s not really a book, but I find some manga to be just as good or better than some books.

Good news.
I bought an electric tea kettle that heats water to an exact temperature for my writing desk.
It glows a wonderful red while heating up and turns to green when done.
The best part - no more bitter tea because I boiled it to death.
Built in diffuser.

My writing partner agrees that cold, wet Monday nights are the best time to write.
But first, I had to get him off my chair.

Amazing.
I listened to The Devotion Of Suspect X by Keigo Higashino and read by David Pittu.
The first couple of chapters were slow but needed. As the story went on it got better and better.
So very, very good. 👍

We stopped at a West Virginia Welcome Center and saw an old fashioned telephone.
It’s like a real phone they use in movies.
Tried to use it but it only took quarters. I had a debit card but no quarters.

A Question. 🙋
I don’t have ProWritingAid because of its price, but if I did get it—would any story I write with it be considered partially written by Ai?
The days of simple spellcheck seem to be over for good, and Ai is hard to avoid
