I have some ideas and a working title and some characters I already care about, so I'm very much looking forward to sitting down and fleshing out the stories.

Get into a daily routine, like jogging or taking a brisk walk before you sit down to write (or don't sit down and use a voice recorder!). Set goals, meet them, and don't wait for the magical Inspiration Fairy to visit.

AI & fiction: Where to draw the lines

You’ve probably seen them on Facebook, X, BlueSky, or your favorite social network. The posts usually start with something like this: I will never read a book where the author used AI in any form or fashion!!! I don’t often wade into these debates, but if I did, I’d point out that many—perhaps most—authors already […]

Quotes by J.D. Lasica  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“A burst of semi-automatic fire from their nine.”
J.D. Lasica, The Golden Relic

“semi-automatic assault rifle against the back of their guide.”
J.D. Lasica, The Golden Relic

“My team and I established the Samana Cay Points System with rewards and penalties, and our AI dispenses points based on what it observers. Jaywalking, a fifty-point deduction. Service in the Military Police, a thousand-point bonus each week. Our tracking system has a record of where every resident has been over the past three years. When your actions and behaviors have a direct bearing on whether you can afford to feed your family come Friday night, the level of conformity achieved is astonishingly high. We’ve built accountability into the very design of our community.”
J.D. Lasica, Catch and Kill

“We are drowning in information but starved for knowledge.”
John Naisbitt, Megatrends
