Forgot to share this: 100 e copies available of the first book in my The Future King series, a near-future retelling of the legend of King Arthur and his knights set in high school in a dystopian Britain. Available to entrants in the US! 💙📚 #giveaway #KingArthur www.goodreads.com/giveaway/sho...

Nearly NEARLY got through the next 100 pages of editing my fast draft. Only 400 pages to go 🫠 #writingcommunity #Pendragon #TheFutureKing #BookSky

I knew it would take less than a day for a tiktok dj to make something.

kom vandaag naar Kortrijk om mij op andere typfouten te wijzen

Tory policy is to revoke permanent residence (ILR) for everybody who does not earn £38k - deporting most nurses who have ILR This is put in the video as "who is unlikely to contribute more than they cost" NB: video does not say EU settled status is exempt No govt since Idi Amin has done this

To anticipate the upcoming release of Pendragon, the third book in my The Future King series, I'm giving away books 1 & 2 (Logres & Logres 2) free on Amazon kindle from October 9-13. Teen drama meets Arthurian saga in this near-future dystopian tale of King Arthur www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08BHY2V4Q

Near to an hour's research for the sentence: "As Arthur took in the red-brick facade, the mullioned windows and the sandstone quoining, he felt the reality of his current situation hit him." In the end Rice's Language of Buildings saved me 😆 #writingcommunity #author #wip

Dag iedereen, op 22 oktober komt m'n exorcismeboek uit maar op 21 oktober is er in Leuven al een avant-première (haha) waarop iedereen welkom is: duivels, dans, extase, hapjes! Inschrijven: www.eventbrite.be/e/boeklancer...

I have this in my near-future dystopian novel [The Future King]. They call them B.I.D.s (Biometric Identity Cards)

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing. These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Oh no I missed my fall asleep window and now all the ideas are buzzing and the internal monologues are running and the off button is not offing 🫠

Don’t recall BBC News leading with any of the myriad marches for Palestine, #PeoplesVote or #Rejoin. How very odd. How very strange. How very expected.

After watching my 680 A4-page manuscript shoot out the printer I'm thinking perhaps I should have edited it harder on the laptop first... #writingcommunity #booktok #authorlife

I feel this ARC read I'm on at the moment should really be an Alpha or a Beta... do I just review or do I let the author know about the inconsistencies I've found? #writingcommunity #authorsky 💙📚

When you see someone's read one page of your book on Kindle then given up 😅 Hope they're saving the rest for later? #writingcommunity #authors 💙📚

Now ARC reading an Arthurian retelling where the author didn't use Google to check their heraldic colours; 'white' is in fact 'silver' (argent), and 'yellow' would be 'gold' (or) - red and white (Lancelot) and red and silver (some other knight) would be the same colour arms 🫠 #writingcommunity

Not historical as such but recently read a book where the protagonist stitched up a wound and then cauterised it I guess melting flesh into stitches

Found a fellow King Arthur author on TikTok. Said: hi fellow King Arthur author! Best of luck with your work! They replied: tell me about your book! Yay ☺️ I go to reply, can't find their comment. They deleted it! 🫠 #KingArthur #Arthurian #WriteSky #WIP 💙📚

Why the fuck do I keep getting targeted ads for AI to help me write my books? Fuck the fuck off with your useless planet-fucking machine

Today I wrote 6,000 words and I only have three pages of my 26-page planning left. I'm nearly there, I can do this. The end of the first draft is in sight #WIP #LightAtTheEndOfTheTunnel #GettingThere #AmWriting #WriteSky 💙📚

Stolen from a friend's IG:

i keep cracking up at this post on AI writing

no one wants this. stop making us suffer for this.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a ball of fears and frustrations -- am currently writing a book, after all -- but I reject attempts to frame historians' dislike of LLMs as fear/anxiety about their own skills, and not as a concern about what doing history -- the method, the ethos -- is.
