i'll receive an extremely modest royalty for the 1st 6 months of my last book, Fisherman's Wife (Oct, 2025), but none at all for the entire previous year for Second Stop (Sept, 2023) which really disappointed me. royalties for To Emit Teal (Oct, 2020) has been a total of $50 through 2 printings.

Grammarly Is Offering β€˜Expert’ AI Reviews From Your Favorite Authorsβ€”Dead or Alive The tool, offered by the recently-rebranded company Superhuman, gives feedback based on the work of famous dead and living writersβ€”without their permission.

Once a simple proofreading tool, Grammarly is now bristling with AI features and a suite of "expert" agents based on the works of real authors. But the company doesn't ask permission and in some cases offers feedback from virtual versions of dead writersβ€”including one historian who died in January.

Surely this is not shocking, but Rogan had most of the big anti-trans scientists that my reporting found to be in the Epstein files on his podcast.

Krauss even tried to connect Epstein to Rogan at one point.

Cover of a new novel, in yellow, that shows the title "Jerry and Rodrigo Go to War" and the author "Steven Salaita."  The cover image shows an open clamp trap for animals with a small drawing of a coyote.

Right as a book of mine is close to being published, I worry that I'm about to make an enormous fool of myself. Even so, I am proud to announce the publication of my second novel, "Jerry and Rodrigo Go to War." May it provide you warm and meaningful company.

Baghaei on Friday shared a video on X, purportedly showing Shahid Hamedani School with students before and after the attack, without elaborating on the circumstances or the number of casualties.
