[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

Writer of cinematic speculative fiction.

I have #aphantasia, which might be why I write cinematically. I can't see it, but I know how a scene should FEEL.

Currently drafting my debut SF thriller at the intersection of bioethics, genetics, and AI.

🧵about my process below:

@brclothwrites keeping it closed can save you from a fire, or CO2 issue.

Jeez, all of you "book scammer" services people are alike. You don't know anything about me, but you're just going to assume you have answers to questions I don't even know I have... Presumptuous much?

I've been in tech and marketing for over 20 years. Hell I've been studying marketing for over 30 years. I don't need your help with things I can do in my sleep. Thanks, but no. Why are you pushing this so hard? Are you desperate? Is your business suffering?

I appreciate that you respected my no DMs rule, but I didn't want to be publicly sold anything either. And this weird tack you've taken with it... yikes.

When you keep pushing after a definitive no, that's not good sales behavior, it's predatory... and the irony that a man has to point that out is.. well it's something.

So we're crystal clear and on the same page, NO.

That still means no, in 2025, whether coming from a man or a woman.

@WCRaustler Well .. I _was_ a DJ.

@mohua22412 depends on context. writing for you? nah. But ideation, brainstorming, things like that, it's a tool.. used as a tool to assist I think it's fine. it's not going away, so ignoring it is.. not foolish, but.. I dunno shortsighted maybe?

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@SusanSavageLee1 Purposefully built tools often are. 😎

@askaya Sure is dark in here.... #Aphantasia

There's a book and/or film idea in this story.

Now the question is which way to take it genre-wise...?

@TheRealDudja Marine, and, basically a pirate, so... I speak like a properly salted devil dog at sea.

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@TheRealDudja As with most things in life, it depends.

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@PJScribbansAuth I start loosely, and refine the outline as I go filling in specific details where necessary.. and then drafting is mostly just coloring in the details.

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@vinquezada1 Berlin wall coming down, maybe?

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@pippawestauthor Actually, yea.. I might be interested in your opinion.

[Milo Cress, Author @milocress]

@DzintraSullivan The creature smiled at me, menacingly.
