I'm an author whose day job is in software and I'm thoroughly unimpressed with Gen AI. It hasn't come close to being the miraculous time-saver or labor-saver that it was hyped to be. I think the bubble is going to burst, and soon.

How can you tell? I don't see anything indicating that it's AI.

Thanks! I have enjoyed your countdown posts about 600 words a day. I am possibly more chaotic than you, I've been writing anywhere from 200 to 2,000 ish words a day according to TrackBear. Total weekend warrior here. Whatever works, right?

I'm bringing my laptop with me when I go out of town next week because I am going to finish this first draft if it kills me. 55K words and counting. Fortunately I have extended family who understand if I need to lock myself in a room and write for an hour or two. Good luck with your goal 🍀

I just read it for the first time this fall also. Loved it so much I immediately read it again. Got it from the library but clearly I am going to need my own copy at some point.
