Anything better than Twitter, I guess

Authors, it has neger been more important to make “AI cannot be used at any point of the process of bringing my book to market” a part of your contracts.
It’s not enough to tell them you don’t want it. You have to make it **a breach of contract** for them to do it. #booksky

We have another progressive Pope. Cardinal Robert Prevost, the first American, is now Pope Leo the XIV. We can all breathe now. The Church will continue its path to inclusion.

I've never read any Jane Austen books before, and I'm thinking about changing that by reading, "Pride and Prejudice," this month. After I undergo my operation.... This edition was a birthday gift from my sisters. 💙

No matter how bad you imagine smallpox was, it was worse than that.
Ben Franklin on inoculation, after his son died from smallpox.
“In 1736, I lost one of my sons, a fine boy of four years old, by the small-pox, taken in the common way. I long regretted bitterly, and still regret that I had not given it to him by inoculation”.

So, I finally decided to read, Stephen King's books and am starting with "Misery." And for some reason, I think I have watched a movie with a similar storyline, way back. Like, the characters and theme feel familiar to me. Anyway, ITS SO GOOD, I CANT PUT IT DOWN

Just finished reading, "A little princess" and was left enchanted. It's even better than what I remember...An intense dose of kindness in a materialistic, cruel and brutal world.. I don't want to leave children's literature. 🥺💙

Current read: "A Little Princess," by Frances Hodgson Burnett.
Reading this book now as an adult brought back many memories. I remember watching the dubbed version of the Japanese adaptation of the novel, When I was a kid. I'm so glad this book is just as good!
