I have been enjoying some fun writing in the Dishonored games, and also Divinity-Orignal Sin (among others)

Original writing that comes from lived experiences and channelled into new art. If we go the way of AI we will lose this.

Pay Writers!

The cynic in me says this was the first step in making sure nobody noticed the writer credits disappearing when producers start using AI exclusively to write scripts.

today's author/freelancer
sook is over. I'm still waiting on 258 hours of (very) overdue payments for work delivered. Had a little cry. Got paid for an author talk. Got called about potential author school visits in April. Still side-hustling, still writing.
