A reminder that eels are critically endangered and are still a major part of the licit and illicit economy in Asia, Europe, and parts of the US (lookin’ at you, Maine)
Valuable eels are in decline all over the world, leading to a new push for restrictions on trade to try to help stave off extinction.
Eel populations are falling, and new protections were defeated. Japan and the US opposed them

People always ask me, “how do I know my manuscript is done?”
There’s only one way, my friends.
If your file name looks something like this:
Manuscript - Final Draft 3.7 FINAL FINAL - FINAL (5).docx
Then, and only then, is it time.

The meerkat and the flamingo and the sketchpage were actually just examples of my work and characters, only the wolf and cat are fursona design concepts!

A couple of years back companies started using AI voiceover and my voiceover gigs disappeared. And then they realised it wasn't quite working...and started using VO artists again. You can create something that is passably a human voice but you can't create something that's even passably human.
Very weird to see writers cheering for A.I. audiobooks. This is the same horrible machine that they want to replace YOU. Audiobook narrators are your peers.
