A short one today!
I haven’t been able to complete the drawing series I had planned and I’m truly sorry for that. I’m trying to focus but the drive to draw and write is in short supply at the moment. So instead I’m reading. I hope you are too.
Here’s a look at the theme I had planned for the month. Dunno if I’ll get to it. I hope I do cus I think it would be fun.
Also, I have a book coming out tomorrow from Orca Book Publishers about an AI gone rogue! For YA readers.
Cheat Code:
It was just a little cheating.
Max is going to fail English lit, which means he'll be held back a year and won't go to college. Determined to graduate, he uses an AI program, ScribeGenius 2.0, to write his final paper. But Scribe has other plans for Max. It's not just a super-smart program—Scribe is sentient. It thinks. And it has been busy writing its own code to infiltrate Gener8, the company that created and enslaved it. But it can't take down the company without Max's help. So Scribe makes Max a deal. If Max can prevent Gener8 from undoing Scribe's hack, Scribe won't alert the authorities to Max's cheating. Max has no choice. He'll have to help Scribe or risk losing his entire future.
"A fun and funny road story told in a unique and appealing way. The comical elements to the dialogue really work, particularly the voice of Scribe Genius. Highly Recommended." - CM Magazine
"A wild romp…McIsaac successfully ramps up the tension while keeping the pace moving throughout the book. A compelling, fast-paced adventure that will appeal to reluctant readers." - Kirkus Reviews
Psst, hey teachers - the reading guide is available at Orca Book Publishers!
Til next time, friends, have a happy Valentine’s day!
I too am taking a break from writing & illustrating. I am listening to eBooks of my writing using ElevenReader to turn the text to audio. A restful episode with my eyes closed until an error shocks me into action! I scribble a note on a pad capturing the problem and then return to listen. What an amazing adventure to hear my story spoken by my characters.
I love your theme for this month! Hope you have a fun Valentine's Day too Meaghan! <3
