Thinking about writing vs sitting down to write. Which one is actually more enjoyable? Writing is fun, stressful, and rewarding —but you get a lot more done in daydreams 🫣

Ever wanted to expose a cannibal conspiracy at a prestigious school? Same. Meet Me tonight, a YA Dystopian Fantasy, is out now! linktr.ee/lafowler.wri... #yabooks #CanYALit #IReadCanadian #books
Introducing my debut YA Dystopian Fantasy, Meet Me Tonight!

It’s got:
• A reluctant and bi enby protagonist
• Dark academia + laughs
• Found family + freaky powers
• Chronic illness + disabilities 
• Awkward teen crushes, not spice 
• Missing students… who aren’t just missing

Blurb for book, Meet me tonight.

New school, new homeroom, and kids going missing? This is definitely not what I signed up for.

I never wanted to be a hero. I just wanted a normal high school experience. One with homework, bullies, mascots, maybe even a love interest or two. Instead, I get a cryptic warning: 
Fear Kraehlings.

Scientific anomalies? Check. 
Vril-Challenged (whatever that means)? Apparently. 
Misfit Friends? Obviously. 
A rare blood type that puts a target on my back? Fantastic.

When six students vanish, the professors tell us to forget. But my friends and I won’t let it go—and what we uncover is worse than anything we imagined.

These kids aren’t just disappearing.
They’re being used.

Turns out, the biggest threat to students isn’t failing grades, after all. But if we don’t fight, empower, adapt, and resist… then we’re all on the menu.

Selene tinkered from the age she could hold a spanner. Raised in a mining colony, her fear for her parents made her repair their gear daily, and trade refurbished junk for extra food rations to support them. -eBook: pjc-cahill.itch.io/nicef -Print: a.co/d/cyHzqQa #booksky 🪐📚💙 #readersky #booktok
Art by Luigiix - left side features Selene standing, somewhat shy, wearing the Mercelo engineering uniform, holding some hair out of her face with her prosthetic hand. Her hair is green with a single pink stripe on the back, her eyes are red, and her skin is pale. Right side shows Selene in her work suit for Nicef repair, stained and tired, but ready to work.

Great job everyone
The study revealed that AI chatbots actually created new job tasks for 8.4 percent of workers, including some who did not use the tools themselves, offsetting potential time savings. For example, many teachers now spend time detecting whether students use ChatGPT for homework, while other workers review AI output quality or attempt to craft effective prompts.
