I decided to become more involved with SFWA ( you may know it as the Science Fiction Writers of America, but the name has changed, while the acronym hasn't) so I "volunteered" —always a mistake, really.
As a full member, and because I teach in Game Design and, yeah, specialize in Interactive Narrative, I've been invited to contribute to the Game Writing committee —and as I've worked a bit in publishing, to the committee running the brand new Games and Comics Quarterly magazine.
So far I've mostly done nothing. I mean, I cast a sort of vote on the cover image for vol.2 of the magazine... And proposed a panel for a coming event:
An Arrow in the Knee: NPCs, the writer and AI —which, lemme tell you, reopened the can of worms that is AI, today, in the writerspace.
But these are not my worms! This is not my can!
I'm just interested in helping those seeking professional development to wrangle all the freakin worms let loose upon the world by AI. Heck, I'm not even the messenger!
Don't Shoot!
