Just how people pay more for handmade furniture or organic food, I hope they will do so for words extracted by means of blood, sweat, and tears from the recesses of the subconscious.

I don't use AI for anything except spelling, grammar, and occasionally suggesting better ways to word something. Grammarly does this for me. Even then, the choice is mine to accept or not.

AI will never achieve sharing its soul.

Why society would drop the standards that have long propped up the literary world to favor robot-generated regurgitated drivel is so incredibly frustrated and at the end of the day… just plain sad.

I believe the distracting AI boom sucking energy and human power will be countered by a rise in writing recovery programs because people don’t write just to communicate facts, they write to heal and rediscover themselves. People write to consider our novel experiences in thoughtful mind expanding manners and to shape our future existence on earth by conjuring that reality with the muses that influence us.

We —writers— must make it so.

We must write what the audience’s collective soul longs to read/hear.

That’s our task.

Not an easy one—

We need to start a Literary Agency
