To start the week off, I’m going to clarify what I mean when I say AI.

In my content this week, I’ll be referring to generative AI tools. You probably know what they are.

Discussion of AI and books has been everywhere in the book community in the last week or so because a big company stole published works and fed them to a massive large language model system.

I offer line and copy editing services for authors.

I offer both because I can’t seem to stop my brain from looking at readability, flow, and sentence structure at the same time that I see typos, spelling mistakes, and punctuation issues.

For readers and authors alike, reading is a powerful activity, and an important one. There are many options for those who want to read more often, and often the choices that readers make in terms of the material they read can make big impacts in their lives.

This is what’s making me happy today.

I opened the box before the day went all stressful, so it wasn’t quite as comforting as it could have been.

But I’m always a fan of restocking my physical TBR and taking items out of the lists that make up my TBR.

Mine does too!

Now that Christmas and New Year’s Eve are over, as well as the sickness that kicked my butt from 12/30-1/8, and that lingering cough is finally letting up, I’m thinking about what I’d enjoy in 2025, and as far as work goes, the image is spot on.
