I don't trash other authors. I do trash folk who talk reckless about Black women.
If that person also happens to have written some books...🤷🏾♀️

So your Word & Google docs can be scraped to train AI?
I've been using Living Writer (pricey) for my writing but all my teaching notes, lectures, etc are housed in Google. I even use Classroom as my main platform.
Guess part of my sabbatical will be to disengage Google.

Omar Tyree saying Black women don't swim because they don't wanna mess up hair and nails...
But not knowing the history of racist policies around public swimming pools is ignorant AF.

Happy Black Hypervisibility Month! I celebrate blackness daily but if this is your month to recognize our history & humanity...you can do so by purchasing my historical fiction novel from your usual booksellers or an indie one. In hardcover, paperback, ebook & audiobook. #bvm

It's been since before Christmas that I checked on our fish pond. They've gotten bigger but still too thin. I'll be feeding them daily. Dug pond 1 year ago and stocked last spring. Follow @ConnerHomestead on FB, IB, YT, TT for more homesteading content.

We built mom a cottage #ShadyPines on our homestead & she's been in it for a year. Her house is selling in Chicago so we had to retrieve her things. I've inherited her extensive #vinylsky including jazz, blues, R&B, gospel and speeches, plays and poetry. Think I'll feature them here #blacksky
