How long until the AI slop books on Amazon cannabalise each other to the point that only a single book is regurgitated, titled And Honestly?

Queensland writers, is there a virtual stream for this year's Genrecon? I can't see it on the website. I'm not tripping, I definitely got a virtual ticket last year!

Sent a short story off for editorial feedback and omg the anxiety I felt before opening the email reply..! Even as an editor, being edited feels scary! (But it shouldn't. The feedback was kind, affirming and helpful... as it should be.)

Yes, somehow I found links on google which worked but couldn't originally find them in-app!

Still in drafting stage of my wip and looking for inspo and connections... especially the whole writing around work/life/needy small people situation... 💕📚 #writingcommunity #writersky

Ugh. Was really enjoying the indie authors scene on Threads but got my account disabled twice for being 'fake' (while using my real name, real photo, account linked to my personal social media... 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️) with no ability to appeal or contact a person. The mind boggles. Anyway, here's to bluer skies!
