#ScribesAndMakers »2026.08.22 — Fantasy stories are frequently inspired by medieval societies. Why do you think people are fascinated by that time period?
My opinion? Literary inertia. Plenty of classics written in the English language going back to middle English and during the democratization of the novel ( Don Quixote thru Ivanhoe) have made it continually familiar, studied, and analyzed as literature. Then the milieu got cemented into the modern literary consciousness with works like Tolkien's and C.S. Lewis'. A medieval milieu offers simplicity that strips away modernity combined with the romance of lawless power and unfathomable evil; it makes for a compelling genre. It is fun. Its familiarity means there are so many acceptable tropes that it becomes easy to write. Authors are all but guaranteed readers will understand their settings and accept the rules they might otherwise balk at without critical thought or resistance.

Are there writers that use AI in their workflows in a realistic way on Mastodon?
If a hashtag exists for writers like this, I'd like to know so that I don't trigger those who don't (and are upset that I'm writing about it lol). I prefer not to have any social media drama in my life, and do not want to deal with rude people each time I write about it.
Yes, I do write with AI - both at work and with my personal writing workflows.
Work - #contentengineering stuff
For personal writing, especially essays: AI mostly used to edit/proofread my work. I DO NOT use it to generate copy for personal writing because I have to do so much clean up it's not fun. Also, it's something I enjoy, crafting prose. I enjoy reading and crafting beautiful prose so that will never leave me.
For fiction (I'm NOT an indie author, but I write mostly to amuse myself): I brainstorm storybeats and then flesh out a first draft with AI. I treat AI as a ghostwriter who writes me bedtime stories to read. I do this because I've not been able to find fiction I enjoy reading so this is my way to get novels I enjoy reading. It's weird, but after hunting high and low for books to read, I kind of gave up and went down this route.
I do not publish these stories.Interestingly, I find myself improving my storytelling skills as a result.
If I do write fiction to sell, I'll probably use AI as an editorial assistant. Will it help me write first drafts? Perhaps, but I don't think I'll enjoy it, so most probably it'll be storybeats brainstorming with AI -> me writing and fleshing out the prose. If I do generate first drafts I'll probably rewrite it so much the first draft won't be recognisable. It'll probably depend on my cognitive abilities on that day, whether brain fog is bad etc.
If you're this kind of writer, let's connect.
If you find me horrid and disgusting, please block me! No need to announce that you hate me. Life is short, why spend it on hate?Then again, if you do, that's great. I'll block you so you don't have to be tortured by my posts anymore.
Anyway, writers who use AI in their workflows, let's connect. Cheers.

#PennedPossibilities 1106 2/2: SC POV: When was a time where you had to make an impossible choice.

#PennedPossibilities 1106 1/2: SC POV: When was a time where you had to make an impossible choice.
Still making that choice. On what was originally a lark, nothing serious just me stretching my wings, I have been hired to perform an unfathomably important job my gender is not usually allowed, protecting the most important woman in the world—thanks to my friend Bolt teaching me an unfathomably difficult skill she actually taught herself. This, disastrously, means I'm in a position where I have to choose between a job people would kill to even have a chance to compete for—let alone be chosen for!—and raising a family, something I was brought up always wanting to do, training to do, and always thinking I would do, such that it's how I think of myself.
I can't do both.

RE: https://eldritch.cafe/@sfwrtr/117130116756058541
#ScribesAndMakers »2026.08.21 — Link to or summarize yesterday's poll and reveal the answer.
The telepath spy led almost to the end and was the correct choice; she never appeared in a story. The DJ was the most disbelieved, but I wrote four novelettes and one short-story about her. She lost the ability to properly fear for her life if other lives were at stake. So, yes, essentially suicidal. Except for in her last story, she gets mauled worse in each story whilst saving thousands anonymously. Most readers recognized my prizefighter character; thanks for paying attention to my posts, y'all! The prizefighter fooled almost no one.

#WordWeavers 2026.08.21 — What's a trope you enjoy writing, even if it's unpopular?
A woman or girl in an unlikely, normally male, or powerful role as a protagonist. Plenty of people think it hackneyed. Until people won't look at the role as unlikely, normally male, or too powerful for a female, I'm writing stories with that trope.

#WritersCoffeeClub #WCC 2026.08.21 — What's a mistake you see a lot of writers make when writing about people with your lived experience?
Maybe more for screenwriters than for print writers: No. Emphatically. You can't walk up to a random terminal/computer to hack into a computer system or gain entry to a facility, especially inside a government agency or reasonably competent company. There's guards, keycards, biometrics, expiring passwords, multfactor authentication, surrendering your cellphone, usb keys, and laptops, and jumping through lotso other hoops, as well as trying to get information stored in isolated machines and isolated networks inside secured computer rooms. Heck, the data and computers may be off-site in a five+ 9s data center. You ain't dropping a bot. You're either going to be working in IT for an inside job, doing social engineering, or resort to wares and be working externally looking to take advantage of stupid or highly technical vulnerabilities anywhere on the net. You will almost never be able to hack a specific target, and if that's your goal, it may take months. You may have to develop software. The job is HARD and requires experience and expertise. Don't base a story on this working easily or quickly. Even decades ago when I got into systems as a student and security was rudimentary, it wasn't easy. Access through vulnerabilities happens mostly through social engineering, laziness or overwork of key personnel, or through undiscovered equipment issues in routers and other external network connections. Try lampshading these factors and your story will seem more believable.

"Anyone who dreams of leading others and being a positive role model must be compassionate; otherwise, their sole focus on themselves will make them ineffective in inspiring greatness in others, and their spiritual immaturity will only make them another disappointing chapter in the history of humankind."

#PennedPossibilities 1105: What secret does one of your characters keep that is dangerous to them? Does anyone else know about it?
There are two characters with secrets much more dangerous to them than Bolt's secret is to her. However—because spoilers are, well… you know, right?—like @floofpaldi said…
I’ll go with the safe option for this answer.
The MC's secret is known to the reader as it is in the title: Reluctant Courier (for the Mob). "Reluctant" has multiple meanings in this context, but what matters is that when Bolt's street photography gets discovered, celebrity, plenty of coin, and new friends follow, as does partial relief from an apathy that has left her having blacked out parts of her life. Being a mob courier has its moments—few of them, mostly scary. While she worries discovery will drive away her new friends, and will likely draw the attention of the constabulary, she's also afraid what the mob will do to her friends—whom she's grown to feel are more important than her own blackmailed life.
