@bevsbookblurbs “…but then the writing took hold of me and I couldn’t put the book down. I cried when I finished it which I almost never do.
I am a professional writer myself and have read hundreds of novels. This was as good as the best of them.”

Was cleaning out some miscellaneous comic stuff and saw a Wizard blurb about the Aaron Lopresti comic Atomic Toybox which only got one issue in November of 1999. But at least from the covers, it looks interesting. I do like the manga inspired one. https://t.co/vFQgafwbwT

Honestly, I don't have a huge problem with AI automating menial, soul-crushing, regurgitated blurb writing that pays next to nothing anyway. It could free up resources to pay people to do the writing jobs AI can't do - anything requiring creativity, insight, or actual reporting.

A great supplement to Sperber’s book is Vinen’s ‘1968,’ one of the best works of history published in the last decade. Forgive the hoary book blurb cliché, but without reading Vinen you’re not fully up to snuff on the history and legacy of the 1960s. No more than every fifth or https://t.co/2G6aakrEQl

@BanNoBooks Yes, while on the one hand I hate the thought of further traumatizing readers who are already hurting, in the end I think I come down against trigger warnings beyond what can be divulged in the blurb.

@McClureShawn Let me see if I get you correctly: so you don’t have an issue with the fact that no scientific theory has managed to explain from where the non-material particles come, but the issue is that some ppl say that’s “God”, and if they said that’s “blurb” it will be fine, correct?

And let’s be honest: the UFO community *does* believe in ET. They are not looking for plastic bags or Venus. It’s a protective excuse the community gives (that UFOs can’t be equated with ET).

To equate it immediately with ETs is to buy into a pretty inane stigma. Given how public this topic has gotten, investigation is the responsible thing to do lest conspiracies fester.
