So Think, Write, Edit, Romance has a lot about prose and a whole section on self-editing. In a moment of wild surmise, I asked the literal Final Boss copyeditor if he'd take a look at it. (When I said I was taking a punt on blurbs...)
And he did, and this is some of what @bcdreyer.social said.

Ooh, pretty!
A couple of other photos of the test copy, the sprayed edges are really crisp, the interior colours pop, and the foiling on the hardback came out great.

“Just we two” Postcard from my collection, mailed 1909. This is by C.E. Bullard, my favorite of the Victorian/Edwardian cat photographers. He seemed to genuinely love cats and didn't restrain them or cram them into tiny costumes.

To fight fascism we need to remember the most neglected commandment of Bill and Ted. Don't just be excellent to each other. Have a good time all of the time.

Pleasure, and joy, are dangerous to fascism and authoritarianism. They enable people to break out of narrow ways of thinking. They encourage empathy and engagement with other people. So they have to be contained.

But people need a break. People need to consume art, it's what we are as a species. And people need to create, in whatever ways. That's not a 'nice to have', it's a necessity, and grinding it out of people is criminal.
Just...don't let anyone tell you you oughtn't be creating, for whatever reason.

Every email I get written with chatGPT is like someone has created a vapid soulless imaginary person who is looking at me with an empty nothing looming behind every sentence and it gives me the fucking creeps.
And that's before I read the words which are cult-level love bombing incoherence.

Interesting thread on interesting thread, and kind of making me wonder if this is part of the very strong author pushback against AI. Obv the stolen books, the attempt to put many kinds of artists out of work, the copying of our voices...but also, we make up imaginary people all the time.
But again - literacy crisis and creative crisis - the characters I make up when I write are almost certainly not beings who can autonomously communicate new experiences to you without my involvement.
