An old blog post of mine - about those new story ideas that pop up unexpectedly. Still trying to figure out how/if i want to get back into blogging after the internet became *waves arms* meaghanmcisaac.com/blog/2026/04...

Dear New Story Idea

Dear new story idea, I don't know you. You make me uncomfortable and deeply unsure of myself. I'm not even sure I like you, to be honest.

That's just it - i moved my blog to my site, but it feels very isolated so this looks like a good social alternative for more creative stuff. I'm excited to research this more!

If LLM watermarks became industry standard, it'd be very interesting. I’ve seen people saying scammers would retype the document but… I dunno. I still regularly see chatbot prompts left in emails or student assignments. Most people are very lazy. techcrunch.com/2026/08/11/a...

Never forget that they had to spend trillions of dollars, build massive data centers, consume millions of galloons of water and insane amounts of electricity, just to kind of do what you can do better with your imagination and a cup of coffee. That's how envious they are of what you can do.

And now the question - are acrylic markers right for this? Or maybe pencil crayon? 🤷‍♀️ I had planned acrylic but his smug grin has taken me by surprise and I'm suddenly not so sure.

Just a bit of book doodles to celebrate the launch of Lydia Cooper is a Lie! 14-year-old Lydia doesn't know she's in witness protection until she accidentally reveals her identity and puts her life in danger in this twisty upper middle grade thriller. #middlegradebooks

I do love that AI inadvertently confirms that our brains work like a muscle, too — use it or lose it. In this way relying on AI is like using a robot to lift weights, like running a marathon in a Honda Civic. You get nothing out of it.
