@Lakeybooks @Tellafrog Not true! The home ed community is very diverse in the ways different families learn. And it's often collective.

@Wisteraverse @DKagemann I'll be honest, from the initial post, I was worried it was a dig at queer writers. But this showed up on my feed and I don't know your work so I'm grateful you replied. I hope someone appreciates your work soon! Good luck x

[✨Kelly Brockington✨ @kellybwritess]

@DKagemann @Wisteraverse I'm wondering the same!

I guess the message is blindingly clear: don’t use AI for any part of your book, not for light research, not for grammar checks, not for anything.

And save the planet while you’re not using it! 🌍

HUNGER GAMES+FOREST RUNNERS+THE PRINCESS BRIDE
It started as a simple love story: 1 spy, 1 gal, & 1 govt mind-control chip designed to wipe memories. Add out-of-control agents & a secret rebellion—plus betrayal & ptsd—and this meet just got a whole lot less cute.

In Silver City, eye color determines status, power, and survival.

STRANGE FAMILIARS/HAZELTHORN

[Sammie @spottedsnake]

A convict and a scientist descend into a toxic chasm to save their city. The mushrooms bite. The chill brings hallucinations. The deeper they go, the less human they stay...and the more the dark begins to whisper their names.
