Happy #Diwali & #BandiChhorDiwas to all celebrating this week. Sending lots of love and light to everyone - it feels as though the world could really do with more of both right now!

I’m a writer who has had work pirated by LibGen & scraped without license by #MetaBookThieves to train their AI. My book was based on PhD research funded with great difficulty, thanks to lack of grants for #Humanities students.

I’m struck by the amount of content ITV is airing about the senior royals atm. From Prince William’s series on his homelessness projects, to a doc on Camilla & domestic violence - and on just now, a new chat show, ‘Royal Beat’. Curious as to whether ITV has made a wider PR deal with the royals?
