My kid carved his pumpkin too scary and is now afraid of it. Honestly, being terrified of your own creation is about as Halloween as you can get.

You heard Clarkesworld. Go buy Subterranean Press ebooks direct from their site and show them your support during a time of Amazon fuckery (it's almost always a time of Amazon fuckery of course).
Wishing our friends at Subterranean Press the best of luck while they work with Amazon to get this straightened out. You can also buy their ebooks direct from them at subterraneanpress.com. (Cutting Amazon out of the picture.)

Time travel is easy, though it comes with a caveat: when you arrive in a new present, you are someone else entirely.

Heads up, writer friends. For the second time I received a cute email from an 11 year old asking if I'd read their short story and give feedback. Story Not an attachment but a link. Be safe. Delete. Do not respond. Emails virtually identical but for boy/girl name.

NEW: Common Crawl, the massive archiver of the web, has gotten cozy with AI companies and is providing paywalled articles for training data. They’re also lying to publishers who have asked for material to be removed. “The robots are people too,” CC’s exec director told us when we asked about this.
The Nonprofit Feeding the Entire Internet to AI Companies
Common Crawl claims to provide a public benefit, but it lies to publishers about its activities.

At my monthly writing group the lady sitting next to me waxed rhapsodic over using AI to 'improve' her writing (turns out it didn't, natch), while the rest of us made faces/shook our heads. Despite our reaction she kept trying to rationalize it & get someone to say it was ok to use.

Stop sharing AI slop.
It's one thing if you don't know or just made a mistake. No need to breathe down someones neck b/c its harder to tell nowadays.
But if you do know (ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO KNOW) even if you're posting it to make fun of it or sharing it unironically... consider not doing that.

Not sure if I'm just the last to know or not, but I just got an email about how Grammarly is now under another company as a part of a "suite of AI tools." I haven't been using it for a while now, but I also went and deleted everything I had ever used it for and the account. Better safe than sorry.
