Or regurgitation?

@dtmooreeditor.bsky.social are you going to give us the rest of the information?

I mean I want to know who the five and the one are, hence asking for all six. Honestly, this is like talking to @edwardcox.bsky.social about numbers all over again.

Womble!

Who are the six people?

These folks who don't want copyright after the life of the author...motherfucker, who do you think is deprived of quality time when we write the damn books?

The sacrifice is not individual. That narrative is incorrect.

Families/beneficiaries should be compensated too.

Act like you know.

Weirdly, I am never asked to write Romantasy. Which is odd as I maintain my first novel is a Rom-Com.

"Today, I remembered that John Scalzi tried to eat my face once upon a time, and I had my opening." I mean it's a memorable opening line, how much of the book is actually about John Scalzi's face eating antics.

It's World Book Day.

Thank you to everyone who ever bought or read a book of mine, even if you hated it.

If you've never read a book of mine, but you've read A book, thank you too. A rising tide raises all ships. You're still enabling me 😁

The most important thing is: read more books!

There's no helping some people.

@dtmooreeditor.bsky.social related to your Troy post, please see above for a giant horse.

I had an Ettin crime lord, based very loosely on the Krays (and their mum) in a Roman London in TTRPG game I was running.

Propaganda.

I know this isn’t your point but I don’t see why Jeff doesn’t cut out the middleman, it’s cheaper and he gets a better curated flavour of dogshit.

Yes, I think that is literally the point: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netocracy

See the section on the Consumatariat. The people developing AI hold to ideologies like this.

That’s just renaissance correctness gone mad, that is. I prefer giant horses as an explanation.

Why is that horse so much bigger than the others?

Your partner is right.

That whole 'consultation' was: 'how can we put the risk on the public rather than our wealthy friends in big tech?'

This is what New Model Army (the band, not the organisation) call 'worshipping the devil in the name of God.'

I know Joe, he's a great writer, if urban fantasy is your thing this is well worth taking a bite out of. (See what I did there.)

Slaine is mannered. Unless you mean that he’s creating problems in town…

But did not think it too many.

I just thought I… I mean this hypothetical person was bit like Slaine.

Hypothetically, if someone was shooting blood through the top of their head like a whale’s blowhole, should they get their blood pressure checked?

INXS?

OUT NOW! An author we don't like. A game we can't play. A novelization that's... surprisingly tolerable if we grade on a curve. But with @patrickhwillems.bsky.social and @thelastmachine.bsky.social joining to discuss Shadowkeep, the conversation earns an A+ easily. Listen: shorturl.at/lDZ45

Search this a lot and also need it as a track.
