My somewhat limited experience is that many readers enjoy reading poorly-written AI slop books and laughing at them. And then all of their friends do too, hundreds of readers on KU, because they share the joke.
Depressing, but true.

Hello bluesky!
This is a chat for me!
I'm Jeb - I have anxiety and my characters have anxiety!
Anyways im working on a campaign for the first three books in my Time Paradox series.
#QueerWritersChat
all of them, all the time, usually by accident 😅 like do you know how many drafts into THE KEEPER OF LONELY SPIRITS I was before I went "oh my god, this man has anxiety!!"
my betas were like ...yes? did you...not do that on purpose?
#QueerWritersChat
#QueerWritersChat Oh, poor Elijah, the anxiety I put you through. You’ll get love in the end, though!
Hello #QueerWritersChat! I’m Rick, a genderqueer SFFH writer and poet. I’m working on an adult sci-fi novel: a kids-on-bikes novel with queer teens, time warps, dinosaurs, and a dystopian future after those teens grow up.
hellooooo I'm E (she/they) and I'm currently on a research trip for the Gothic novel for which I made an accountability thread here months ago, then abandoned until I could take my trip 😅

Yes, indeed. I like pairing an anxious character with a confident once. Then I switch viewpoints and show you that the confident character is all soft, gooey center and that the anxious character is surprisingly calm.

Oddly enough, no. I am a ball of anxiety about lots of things. A bad link in my newsletter can knock me over for days. But words, sentence, paragraphs, sex scenes are just what I do.

I'm working on launching my queer fantasy novel The Shadow God's Knight in which I answer the question: what if Beauty meets Beast, and he isn't boyfriend material?
Also, starting a straight WIP this time, just to be different.
What, it will do my laundry now? No? Then what good is it?
And my book is included in an MM romance ARC bundle. I'm rather liking Booksirens so far. We'll see how many reviews I get, and if those reviews are written by actual humans.

My ARC is appearing in a bundle on mythology-related fantasy.
Meet Aurelian, a hero with a very personal relationship with his god.

One of my beginning of project tasks is deciding how people swear.
I wrote five books last year. I can afford to publish two books a year. AI is useful to me when it can cook and do my laundry.

wouldn't it be funny if EVERYONE blocked this Attie AI account @ bsky.app/profile/atti... before they could do anything with it
Any big grows in our locale are in a warehouse, and real estate is too expensive here for it anyway. They mostly grow it in the far 'burbs in shipping containers.
And I'll add, from reading hundreds of "what is that thing?" posts, it's amazing how much ordinary infrastructure we don't notice until we do.
According to r/boston, probably mapping lidar.
Typo in the alt text:
Text on the train cargo car is:
Nine inch rails
pretty freight machine.
That traditionally published author did not "approve" that book cover.
