Robbie Norlyn, Author 👾I’m feeling like migrating to a new instance. I need to get away from some pretty toxic political content some have been pushing really hard lately. I’m a bit more interested in creative content and interaction.

Sheila M. Averbuch - Author"I believe that, if I’m good with words, the single best thing I can do with that is write stories for young readers." -- thanks to @bigbeardedbookseller for having me for an author Q&A!

How Chat GPT got me and my book really, really wrong
Last Friday was a precious day off, a delayed birthday treat visiting winter gardens in England, but while my husband waited for me to get ready to go out to dinner, I was glued to the couch at our holiday rental, stressing over Chat GPT. I'm a creator – a career technology journalist, now a tech co
Jillianne Hamilton 📚Holy crap.
Faleena Hopkins, the romance author behind #Cockygate, was in a high-speed chase and is now a missing person and I don't know how to process this.

I'm considering moving to a new instance. I'd love to find a place focused on discussing writing, #indiePublishing, and book marketing. (I just don't want to get swamped with book ads.)
