#WritersCoffeeClub May 1: Workers' Day: What can we do to support and protect other writers, not only now, but in the future as well?
1) Reject "AI" and everything connected with it. That includes things like being scared to use lists of 3 or em dashes. Ensure that "AI" vendors have no market for their wares.
2) Start, and promote, more publishers. Publishing is _hard_ and self-publishing isn't for everyone, so making the publishing options more diverse, instead of... 1/2

...having just a "Big Five" (or a "Big" *any* number lower than, say a hundred), is better for all writers. 3) Encourage editors and cover artists. (This includes paying them properly for their expertise, and also follows up on point #1. Also, this is something those publishers in point #2 can be doing.) 2/2 #WritersCoffeeClub
