Just finished reading The Grapes of Wrath by John Steinbeck. Such an important book but so incredibly sad. I was in tears at the end. Even sadder is I don't think things have got much better - profits still mean more than people. – at Scotland, United Kingdom

Just going home after attending 2 #creativewriting workshops at the Mitchell Library as part of the @AyeWrite Festival. Really valuable advice & glad I went. Plus, I finally visited the Mitchell Library, which is stunning inside...with some questionable carpeting decisions 😄 – at Glasgow, Scotland

For me, writing fiction is the author putting pieces of themself onto the page - and at the moment when someone else recognizes those feelings and experiences, neither author nor reader is alone. Using AI to write a story removes the possibility of that moment entirely. 🤷‍♂️
