My Life In Posting ft. Jackie Ess

This week, we’re joined by novelist Jackie Ess to talk about her early online experiences and how it influenced her writing and craft. Jackie talks to us about constructing semi-fictional characters on Twitter, and what happened when an academic journal took it at face value. She also talks about how her posting has changed over the years, and how much of her life online incorporates playing the piano. We also talk about Richard Dawkins falling in love with an AI and how even the most ardent of disbeliever only wants one thing: For a woman to praise their work in progress novel.  Purchase a copy of Darryl: https://divided.online/all-books/darryl Follow Jackie on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/essj.bsky.social ------- PALESTINE  AID LINKS -You can donate to Medical Aid for Palestinians and other charities using the links below. https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate https://www.savethechildren.org.uk/how-you-can-help/emergencies/gaza-israel-conflict -Palestinian Communist Youth Union, which is doing a food and water effort, and is part of the official communist party of Palestine https://www.gofundme.com/f/to-preserve-whats-left-of-humanity-global-solidarity -Water is Life, a water distribution project in North Gaza affiliated with an Indigenous American organization and the Freedom Flotilla https://www.waterislifegaza.org/ -Vegetable Distribution Fund, which secured and delivers fresh veg, affiliated with Freedom Flotilla also https://www.instagram.com/linking/fundraiser?fundraiser_id=1102739514947848 -Thamra, which distributes herb and veg seedlings, repairs and maintains water infrastructure, and distributes food made with replanted veg patches https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-thamra-cultivating-resilience-in-gaza -------- PHOEBE ALERT Okay, now that we have your attention; check out her Substack Here!
