Hey Anthrocon, don't forget I am doing a reading at 3 PM in DLCC 310-311! I will be reading from my new book, "Therianthropic Dreams," and from my story in "Heavens Within Our Grasp." There will be poetry, Vikings, and me talking about my inspiration about the poetry chapbook.

It is wonderful to see more people willing to talk about being a therian. When I first got into the furry fandom, there was a lot more contention between furries and therians.

On the way to Anthrocon. Fadel wants to know if we are there yet. I wish. It is a long drive from Florida.

Oh god, I've written another goofy flash fiction story today. It's called "Stocks and Buns."

Anthrocon is next week! If you're wondering where my dealer's table is, it will be at L20. Look for me and the pile of books there.

Also, the sticker is from my @cinnamonspots.com sticker set.

Yeah, flying changes things. We're driving, so it is easier. Still not sure I want to get that creative though.

I've also heard of a dealer bringing a slow cooker and setting that up in the room with a waiting meal for when they're done dealing, but I haven't reached that stage yet.

I bring trail mix and beef jerky. I got the idea from watching a video about what dried rations in D&D would be. That would also include hardtack, but I am not going to make that. A mix of dried ruit, nuts, granola, and jerky will get you through the day. I also take a refillable water bottle.

One of the central questions I asked myself with this book is "what happens when the monster stops being the monster?" The results have been fascinating to write at times, yet also unexpected.

Some of the beats will likely change during editing also. I have a lot to ponder on this one.

It is kind of gorey for my taste, but I think some people will really love this. It is a weird feeling to have.

I have been poking at the ending for my furry vampire novel, and I have ended up in a weird spot. I think the ending I have is logical and works for what I have written, but I am not personally happy with it. It has turned more into horror than I anticipated.

That makes sense. That's why I kind of dropped Grammarly. I didn't agree with all its suggestions.

That certainly has some nuance to how it was done.

I'm sure that was done by a person, at least if it was old enough it was. There's a lot of nuance with translation that can be lost, like puns and alliteration. I'm sure this would do the same.

Yeah. I'm not saying I don't run into archaic language sometimes that drives me crazy, but this is taking an axe to prose with no nuance at all. We don't just rewrite texts for the hell of it, especially to kill most of the meaning. It's a typical AI hack job.

I've used Hemingway some. I only briefly thought it was a really good idea. It's nice to see what might need to be simplified, but that's about all I ever got from it. I moved past it quite a while ago.
