Pick up Souvenir Heart "I loved this book for the marvelous ways the three spies were able to plan and carry out their rescues and escapes, the emotional vulnerabilities of the characters and the love story that actually began before the two met. " #booksky www.amazon.com/dp/B0H56DZ3J6

good morning

We recommend avoiding general and often dehumanizing "the" labels such as the poor, the mentally ill, the French, the disabled, the college-educated. Instead, use wording such as people with mental illnesses. And use these descriptions only when clearly relevant.

Replying to @APStylebook

The use of "the French" in this tweet by @AP was inappropriate and has caused unintended offense. An updated tweet is upcoming.

I’m thinking that one of the upsides of AI is that the mere mention of it makes me stick my ostrich head more deeply into the worlds I create with my writing. And since I’m on deadline and AI gets mentioned hourly, it’s making me incredibly productive… #amwriting
