😍 - AI has its place, but creative writing and the human connection is something different. From what I've seen, fans love being able to interact with their favourite writers. Getting back stories about favourite characters, supporting writers they like (and it costs them nothing other than their original stake).
I feel that we need some professional marketing help, though, if we want to succeed.
yes!
Hi @shanibeer,
Thanks for tagging me. I'm not good at marketing, but I am good at grunt work. If there is any hands-on writing, etc that needs to be done, I volunteer. @jayna is far more polished and savvy than I am, but I do know her plate is full (whose isn't?). Great initiative. Getting published authors to join is potentially fruitful.
Let me know how I can help. My husband is looking at some serious health issues in the future (let's hope not). If these materialize, I will have to pull back. Otherwise, you can count me in for grunt work.
Hello @agmoore 😍
Sorry to hear about your husband, I hope that works out well.
Although grunt work is a necessary part of life, I was thinking more about @macchiata's request for a judge or judges for the contest. The folks involved with The Ink Well are all much more skilled than me.
I think you are skilled, but yeah, we do judging I guess all the time.
The Inkwell team is certainly practiced in this, and I would certainly be part of that if you thought it would help.
😍
