My desktop pic reminds me that #NoSmallShame is out there in bookstores, even when I can't be! Hope you're finding readers NSS, even though I can't go out & sign or see you in stores! Plus I'm so missing the chance to meet booksellers! Small prob, but sad for a debut author!

@MelCityofLit Pls, pls quack loudly & long as all creatives should. AI writing is not creative but piracy. Else, ffs, get a 3D printer to paint & sculpt. Take all humanity/poignancy/statement out of art & literature. Plagiarism is piracy. I don’t get, how can AI ever be condoned in the Arts?

Did I mention I have a book soon to be released? And did I tell you I'm so excited to share this story with you?
I did? It's all true!
May 3 is the date. Can't wait to see it out in the world.

Watch Sarah Holland-Batt's remarkable acceptance speech for her #2023StellaPrize-winning poetry collection, The Jaguar.

In her speech, @the_shb reflects on caregiving and its relationship with women’s creative work, the language of grief, and the solace to be found in poetry.

@jenniferdown Beautiful words! ❤️

[Christine Bell @chrisbellwrites]

@annaspargoryan Hope it works for you, Anna. I pretty much felt the same, I’ll try if it helps. Might be worth a medical/Google cross check. I’d hate to give you wrong advice.

[Christine Bell @chrisbellwrites]

@annaspargoryan My GP ‘s recommendation after rear ending was to sleep sans pillow for a few days to lessen whiplash severity. I’m not sure if it helped but my symptoms weren’t too severe. Be good to see other qualified medical opinions. Hope you suffer no post accident effects, Anna.

If you’re in or near Canberra, this will be an amazing conversation!

[Dr Robyn Cadwallader @robyncad]

Delighted and honoured to be chatting to the wonderful @NGFeathers about my new novel, #TheFireandtheRose on May 10 at ANU Meet the Author. Sally Pryor is MC. Couldn't ask for more ... except to see my Canberra community there.
