Getting out and about
I'm in the middle of getting myself organised for my final Pride author event of the year. I'll be joining a fabulous bunch of Sapphic authors at Loud and Proud Logan for what promises to be a fantastic day of fun selling, signing and chatting about our books. The first time I ever had an author stall at a Pride event was way back in 2012 at Brisbane Pride's Perry Park Fair Day.

Blue whales are falling silent from hunger. The krill are gone. The sea is too warm. Their songs fade away.
This is no anomaly. Humanity is deaf to a symphony of grief and warnings.

Anti AI? You betcha!
I've been reading - and participating in - a lot of debates about the use of generative AI (GenAI) in creative fields lately, and I am just going to put it out there right now that I am dead-set against the use of GenAI anywhere. Quite apart from its massive environmental impacts - consuming huge amounts of water and electricity - which should be argument enough against its proliferation, GenAI is trained on the stolen creative output of authors, artists, and musicians.
