Right on the heels of the “corrective action” taken against United Healthcare, this feels like a really bad plan for BCBS.

It’s a little like asking Tim Cook his opinion on smartphones. ;)

I’m a one and done writer. I know that’s not for everyone, but when I finish the last line of the last chapter, I really enjoy being able to immediately ship it to editing. I wouldn’t want to have to go back through fixing stuff I left undone.

Getting it right the first time works best for me. :)

What happens if that belief is in oneself? Do they then become a cleric of themselves? :)

It’s a nice twist! Is your concept that all magic comes from one divinity or another?

The difference is that everyone EXPECTS unethical behavior from Trump. Some folks were shocked to see it from Biden, too.

OK, I started this account almost two years ago, but nobody was here yet. Now, I hear everyone is coming over, so I figure I’ll check it out too. Hi? :)

I’m Kevin McLaughlin, author of 106 SF&F novels, half trad and half indie. You’ll hear me chat about writing a fair bit. :)

Oops. :)

I find that while GPT can write sales copy, it tends to be generic.

My go to method is to look at close comps in the top 100, deconstruct *their* blurbs, and make something similar to those, but for my story. :)
