My daughter is looking to join a social media platform and find a support network for aspiring writers. I suggested Mastadon and promised her I'd see what kind of accounts, groups, and hashtags exist and if the engagement on this platform is robust.
So, any feedback from Mastadonians is welcome. Can she expect an excellent experience here? Any particular accounts that you would recommend her to follow is appreciated
#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 26: About which format or style choices are you the most uncertain?
Chapter length. I really have no idea what I'm doing with chapters. I'm considering not bothering with them and just stringing hundreds of scenes together.
#WritersCoffeeClub March 25: Describe your workflow if it had to be 100% analog.
Write on paper. Write scenes as separate little units. Put scenes in file folders. Rearrange scenes in folders and fill in missing ones as necessary.
#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 24: Is there a particular reader you keep in mind when you write?
I'm trying to resist that urge because there are two: the SFF/genre reader who's three steps ahead of me bc they know all the tropes, and the BIGOT sff/genre reader who's deliberately misreading everything I do in order to avoid all the "woke."
@Garwboy As a friend of biodiversity I had nearly stopped reading until there: "I like all of those creatures. I find them fascinating, and they occupy important roles in our society and ecosystem. I would never say that about Mark Zuckerberg."
But now I dream of writer troll farms using your inspiring idea to train #AI: https://theneuroscienceofeverydaylife.substack.com/p/an-article-for-meta-to-use-to-train Great! Made my day.

#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 23: What’s the most memorable encounter you’ve had with a reader?
When one person in my new writing group announced she'd been reading my stuff all week. It was really encouraging.
#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 22: What distracts you the most from writing? How do you deal?
Literally, for real, the pain in my hip from my arthritis, which is the *oldest* thing that's ever happened to me.
What would be good Fediverse instances for our local writers group to use? I'm thinking of an account I can connect up to our existing Webador website. Thanks!

Okay guys talk me down off the cliff - just discovered that many of my books are on Zlibrary and LibGen without my knowledge or permission. I know I'm late to the party, but I'm an old lady. Is there anything I can do? Should I even be bothered? am I overreacting, or????

If you're an author especially an indie author, it's very likely that Meta used pirated copies of your books to train their AI.
Remember, #AI is based on theft from creators.
You can find out if they stole from you by searching your author name here.

#WritersCoffeeClub Mar 20: What was the most writing related fun you've had?
