Story Skeleton—A Wizard of Earthsea Le Guin shaped the YA fantasy genre while never quite belonging to it. She proved that young readers can handle complexity and ambiguity, and that a children’s story can be rich in language and ideas.

Oh hey, looks like Libby has a built in spot to let them know what we all think of their recent announcement about allowing AI books in their systems.

omg

living in the 2020’s

If you’re gonna self-publish your book, NEVER use genAI for the cover. Doesn’t matter if every word in the book is your own. GenAI indicates cheapness, laziness, and that you don’t give a shit. And if you don’t give a shit, why should your readers?

To me, "aspiring writer" means "looking for a pen".

You're a writer. Own it.

“prompt writer isn’t an artistic medium” is a fantastic read and I hope it makes them cry

Duane Kearns Puryear, holding his panel for the AIDS Memorial Quilt. It reads, in block letters: "My name is Duane Kearns Puryear. I was born on December 20, 1964. I was diagnosed with AIDS on September 7, 1987 at 4:45 PM. I was 22 old. Sometimes, it makes me very sad. I made this panel myself. If you are reading it, I am dead..." There are several great resources to learn about Duane, his advocacy, his family, his panel, and the politics of memory and re-creation, especially this one by The Dallas Way: http://www.thedallasway.org/stories/written/2021/9/19/duane-puryears-and-the-quilt-panel Duane Puryear died in 1991.

It's your birthday, Duane.

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out

pick up a pencil and a napkin

it is INCREDIBLY fucked up that we’re trying to make writers look hot on camera. every writer i know is like “please leave me in the same clothes i’ve been wearing all week that are covered in crumbs i will shower after my deadline” they should not be on tiktok

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork
