Had such a fun time interviewing #LouisePenny at last week's #icelandnoir convention. She was there to promote Gamache plus her book with Hilary Clinton. Their conversation was the following day with Iceland's first lady Eliza Reid - who is also a crime writer! I was there to promote my newest Max Tudor and to see geysers and waterfalls and avoid volcanoes. Came back with a cold, but worth it. Louise and I go back a long way and it was great to catch up. Good laughs. Written interview to come.#writerslife Recommended by The Every Girl:
https://theeverygirl.com/books-to-read-for-halloween/ My local Sisters in Crime had a session yesterday led by Cathy Wiley about the uses of AI for authors.
On the one hand, for research it's a time-saving boon. On the other hand, the limits of this invention seem limitless and that's a bit frightening. I feel as if I'm being replaced, I really do -- even though the output from AI is pedestrian and not very human like, I think that is on the way. Would love to know what Goodreaders think. An excellent resource for writers just starting out or already "there," wherever "there" is.
Seriously, I recommend and not just because I'm a contributor. The collection is currently nominated for at least two major mystery awards. Making plans and arrangements to appear at the @IcelandNoir conference in Reykjavik this November. Excited! It's a place I've never been and never expected to see.
