It’s these things you don’t think about. Going to put more power into Amazons hands since most EBooks go through them. #booksky

Just wrapped editing the audiobook 📚🎧 for James Lee Burke's "Don't Forget Me, Little Bessie." Follows a remarkably strong young woman in the early 1900s. Burke writes an unforgettable female with wisdom beyond her years. Worth the read. Will let update when audiobook comes out amzn.to/3QYntl6

Trump’s new exec order on ticket scalping doesn’t create new laws—just asks agencies to enforce the 2016 BOTS Act.

Wanna be better than mediocre? Don’t rely on AI. Why? Because #AI is trained to give you the most predictable result. Predictable is boring. Let’s keep the arts human

Thanks to Anangsha Alammyan for quoting my work on #medium about #AI copying of artists from Miyazaki to authors. We creators must choose: fight tech that devalues our craft or adapt. I'm going to choose to keep fighting! ✊ Her full article here 👉 medium.com/p/d9cd7df759b4 #CreatorsRights

As a producer, I've watched every shot get scrutinized by legal teams. Meanwhile, YouTube news creators post with zero oversight. The accountability gap is alarming. My new article explains why #YouTube news has an unfair advantage: medium.com/write-your-w... #MediaLiteracy
