All the #writers here. Are there any rules for how long to make paragraphs, the font to use, and where to put in quotes, double space, etc. I think the only thing that is stopping me from posting fiction is that I don't want someone sighted to look at it, and not be able to make heads or tails of the formatting.


Hello #writers of the world! With #NaNoWriMo approaching, I wanted to create a space for like-minded people to gather and share ideas, progress, encouragement, and accountability. I've created a Discord server for writers of any kind, be that novelists, poets, coders, content writers, etc. Anyone is welcome to join and hang out with us. We have text channels for casual and topic-based conversation, as well as voice channels for various topics including one for body-doubling. You're even welcome to join if you aren't a writer but enjoy reading/helping others with their projects. If this sounds like a place you might like to be, please join. :) discord.gg/hYtPBcCZ33 #writing #nanowrimo2024 #amwriting


Are AI tools really as smart as creative writers? 🧐 It looks like we will soon know for sure. In any case, AI and its influence on our societies must be watched closely: After all the tools were trained with human writers content who they are now supposed to replace.

Awww, poor little tiny Internet Archive. Boo hoo! Poor Silicon Valley, having to obey laws meant to protect the mere serfs & plebians who actually make content for a living. Who write. Who create. Who are not just riding off other people's work. People. Like. Me.

#Writers of the #Fediverse! Looking for a writing exercise/writing prompt? Join the #ALT4you and #ALT4me mutual aid effort to provide #ALT descriptive text to images in the #fediverse

ALT descriptive text is used by blind and visually impaired people to understand and process photos and images that they otherwise cannot see. So please add ALT to any images you Toot.

Putting an image into words can be a very creative exercise that forces you to look at images more deeply and then convey their content and meaning in words.

Also follow the #ALT4me hashtag. It's used by blind and visually impaired tooters (is that even a word?) to request mutual aid when they encounter an image that does not have ALT.

Respond to #ALT4me by replying with the ALT text.

Here's a great example of #ALT4me in action:

The first toot is a request for ALT and the comments provide them.

"We waited. We submitted a few more rounds. Everyone loved it and no one wanted it, so we paused submitting. This is the point at which some writers and agents cut their losses and try again with a new book, a new query, even a new agent. But the thought of leaving my agent was exhausting. Plus, I liked her and she liked me.

And this is where the biggest lesson I learned from my querying days kicked in—it ain’t over till it’s over."
