Just thinking... Would seeing what everyday readers thought of Shakespeare or Twain at the time be useful?
GoodReads is obsolete. Fight me.

The carbon in our cells was forged at the core of stars. The iron in our blood was created in countless supernovae. We are matter that learned to speak. Creation is the cosmos thinking out loud and trying to understand itself.

Phones are the ultimate anti-totem. If you have one in your hand, you’re awake.
There’s a reason you ain’t ever used your phone in a dream

Technology can give us text. Books give us presence. That's worth holding on to.
“Please, no matter how we advance technologically, please don't abandon the book. There is nothing in our material world more beautiful than the book." - Patti Smith

Mummies were once ground into powder and sold as 'medicine' in Europe. I know it’s not Halloween yet. I’m just.... preparing the atmosphere 🎃

Now I feel like I need to start writing the screenplay just to live up to that comment. Kenneth, you're a legend!
Hurry and get your copy before 27 May. Win bragging rights that you were one of those who made Antony Botting a superstar writer. When this becomes a film or TV adaptation, you may be invited to the team as a consultant. But first read it, it's awesome! #AmReading #BookLovers

Orwell warned us about language being stripped of meaning. Bradbury warned us about losing books altogether. Maybe fiction written by AI is a quieter kind of forgetting.
Do you think books written by AI will ever become popular 🤔? #readingforpleasure #WritingCommunity

There's nothing quite like hearing your story come to life through the magic of audiobooks. Congrats to @AntonyBotting on his latest release!🎉 Authors, what was it like hearing your book in audio for the first time?
@AudibleACX Fantastic. Hearing my story as an audiobook gave me a whole new perspective. Like experiencing it for the first time through someone else’s voice.
