Really really REALLY REALLY don%27t trust AI chatbots, Part III -- they don%27t even know what today%27s date is! Is this intentional?

Really REALLY don%27t trust software code written by "chatbots" like Google%27s Bard AI. Eeek!

Really really don%27t trust "chatbots" like Google%27s Bard AI. They lie. A lot.

Staying Alive - New Ebook on the Business of Writing from Norman Spinrad

Apr 9, 2012   [permalink]

It's hard enough for a writer just to get published. But even harder is—Staying Alive.

Cover

The business side of writing and the publishing industry is often overlooked in books on writing — but not this one. Now released in ebook form from ReAnimus Press, Norman Spinrad's STAYING ALIVE - A WRITER'S GUIDE gives great advice on how to survive as a writer, both economically and psychologically. It was written a few years ago, so factor in some inflation in the numbers, but otherwise the trends he writes about are as true then as today.

Spinrad knows his stuff: He's a three-time SFWA President, award-winning author, been a litery agent, and so on. It's a great read for anyone who wants a career as a writer, and I'm glad my ReAnimus Press got the opportunity to publish it.

It's at:

I hope you enjoy it!
