As a reminder - you won't find chat gpt prompts in our work because we only use the finest banana peels to write down our stories before painstakingly translating them onto the digital page with dark powers from beyond the pale. Also Ai is dumb.

Impossible Worlds is one of my favourite SFF magazines, editors and artists are great to work with. Good pay for writers as far as semi-pro goes. And they have a few issues out free to read if you want to check them out before deciding if you want to support them :) (which you should)

This may be one of the worst times to be posting art online. So many platforms being swamped with AI, spammed with aggressive bots and algorithms that will hide you until you play their silly secret games. What else can we do but ride it out? 🐻 #TheBearMinimum

Holly bear walking with her stuff packed across an internet browser:
Text reads: I have posted my art online for 25 years now and the the main thing I have learned over the years is to diversify where you post.

Holly bear walking past the ruins of DeviantArt with a sad expression, a campfire long since abandoned. Behind the DA sign art thieves are stuffing paintings into black bags and a robot bear is printing endless pictures. Text reads: Keep posting to as many relevant platforms as you have energy for, because enshittification comes for them all

Holly bear walks past the 'X' sign which has burned it's way through the twitter bird. She has an annoyed expression on her face and the campfire by her looks recently abandoned. There is a dumpster on fire, an onlybears model advertising and two bots talking to each other and printing out slop. Text reads: Do you have one site that you rely on for income? Prepare for it not being functional some day. It isn't pessimism to be prepared, when so many of the giants have been rendered unusable.

Holly bear sighs, taking a break and sitting down by a new campfire, not unpacking all her stuff. There is a small sign with the blue sky butterfly on it. Text reads: If you find a place with good community, negligible algorithms and feedback; try to live in the moment. Enjoy it while it lasts.

It released today, & is available in print from Lulu - www.lulu.com/shop/kevin-p... - & in ebook here - a.co/d/9lioMFl . Also, isn’t this cover rad as heck?!
