Best author note I've seen on my feed. Unfortunately too many characters for alt. starting a thread: #writingcommunity AUTHOR'S NOTE It has been brought to my attention that authors should prob- ably start including a note at the beginning of their books indicating whether AI was used in writing.

I need to practice my presentation but finding it hard right now, there's been a death in the family (my siblings' mom) and I just wish I could do more for them

Now that holiday is fully over, back to PhD stuff and writing in prep of my PRP #academiasky #phd #amwriting #histfic

Highly recommend the #fantasy writing group in southampton - enjoyed going to the group with @sophiecreates.bsky.social :D #writingcommunity

So tempted to go back to my Pirate novel but I'm on holiday from my PhD so trying not to touch it until monday #amwriting #writingcommunity
