Talking about how AI and tech can help (or hinder) writers

This week we got to chat with the ever-engaging Lorissa Rinehart and Tracy Dawson to catch up on what they've been up to since our last convo! We dove into the beauty of modern research options, the democratisation of so many aspects of writing as an industry, ways we should be wary of AI (and the ways we shouldn't fret too much over), the HUGE win writers in the US are celebrating and SO. MUCH, MORE. Safe to say, we'll be fitting in another chat again soon. If you haven't yet gotten your hands on their books, please do (highly recommend as required reading!):Tracy Dawsonhttps://tracydawson.net/https://www.instagram.com/dawsontracyhttps://www.twitter.com/dawsontracyIf you need more encouragement to check out Let Me Be Frank, look at these endorsements!"An entertaining, astonishing collection celebrating the diverse trailblazers who disguised themselves as men...Let Me Be Frank is a witty, sometimes infuriating, wholly inspiring look at the lengths that women had to go to." - Buzzfeed“A smart, funny journey through history that introduces us to the rule breakers who made history worth traveling through. So well-written.”—Patton Oswalt “Tracy has such a gift for storytelling and making history leap off the page. Her book has a wit that suggests it was written by a man since everyone knows women aren't this funny.”—Kay CannonLorissa Rineharthttps://lorissarinehart.com/https://www.instagram.com/lorissa_rinehartLorissa's book, First to the Front, is out NOW and getting huge buzz..."Jam-packed with colorful details and incisive character sketches, this is a vivid reappraisal of a pioneering journalist." ―Publishers Weekly (starred review)"An astonishing story...exquisite. After reading this enthralling book, now, when someone asks, 'What three people from history would you have over for dinner?' My first choice is easy: At the head of the table is the incomparable Dickey Chapelle. Next to her, the other two guests will be fighting for table scraps." ―Buddy Levy, author of Empire of Ice and Stone: The Disastrous and Heroic Voyage of the Karluk"An extraordinary story, told with cinematic flair. Chapelle's groundbreaking career should be studied in every journalism school in the country. Rinehart's vivid prose makes us feel like we're right there with her through all her trials and triumphs." ―J.
