Also, I am hating Twitter more every day, if anyone is using Mastadon regularly has views on pros and cons, I'd be interested.
There seems to have been some kind of tipping point with AI (or I've been walking around with my eyes shut) and I put a few thoughts down on how I think it could impact our industry https://theempoweredauthor.com/lounge-blog/2022/12/20/write-an-article-about-the-threat-of-ai-on-the-book-publishing-industry
