Looking forward to visiting St. Mary's College on Tuesday, 10/6! If you're nearby, the event is free and open to the public. Grateful to the SMC English Department and the @INAuthorsAwards Speakers Bureau/@INHumanities for the support. saintmarys.edu/evening-sarah…
I believe the Pope is saying Stay Real Make Art ✌️
I believe the Pope would agree: Humans Do It Better

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
Ordered a coffee mug printed with the name of my novel manuscript's fictitious town, and I sip from it each day while revising.
It's real! (To me. And maybe someday to you.)
I'm editing an anthology of book scammer messages, to be published via your contributions to this thread. Working title: PARTICULARLY STRUCK

"One of the few things I know about writing is this: Spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Don’t hoard what seems good for a later place in the book, or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now." #RIPAnnieDillard

"Stay Real Make Art" is a response to soulless AI slop in creative writing, visual art, and music. Snag a shirt, mug, or notebook & help support the @WritersCenterIN, a fabulous nonprofit that nurtures the writing community.

Some of you complain that I never get you anything for National Audiobook Month, but that simply isn’t true
