Anne Lamott has some thoughts about “writers” who would be satisfied with #ChatGPT or #GenerativeAI creative writing. Her point: you’re a writer because of the process, not the product. From Bird by Bird (1994).

I reviewed THE NATURE BOOK by Tom Comitta, a debut novel from @Coffee_House_, for @StarTribune. I say it’s “an epic journey — visual, textural and musical — that illustrates the vastness of our environment.” m.startribune.com/review-the-nat…
Proud alumnus of the Center for Writers! And really excited to see so many former classmates at AWP and thriving!

I taught book reviewing for @CatapultStory, who’s now shuttering its classes division. My experience there was awesome: smart students, helpful admin, great community and collaboration. I like everyone involved and was lucky to be part of that. publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/in…
Ice Box, the undergrad lit journal at @uafairbanks / @uafcla, got a glowing review. Our latest issue was praised for its "diversity of content, imaginativeness, and literary skill." Very proud of our student writers and editors! fuse-national.com/single-post/ic…
Reading list for my grad-level Forms of Fiction class at @uafairbanks this spring. Going for a good variety of canonical, contemporary, literary, and offbeat. Featuring: @angiecthomas, @WanbliWeiden, @BananaKarenina, and more!

The Aberdeen Author Fair was fantastic! I got to meet new author friends, catch up with old friends, and of course pick up some wonderful new books. Thank you, @AberdeenPubLib, for hosting this event! 📚
Just submitted our latest issue of Ice Box, the UAF undergrad journal, to @plainchinavcu! Take note, advisors and editors: plain china is basically the "Best American" or "Pushcart" for undergrad writers. UAF has been represented in it the past two years!

As a teacher, I can report that students are more likely to use the term Chekhov’s Gun as a workshop cliché than they are to read the actual stories or plays of Anton Chekhov.
These are the two political strategies today: confront and threaten, or negotiate and compromise. In other words, bullying or civility.
