  Michael Woudenberg,
  Co-Authoring with AI
  The last year has seen an explosion in artificial intelligence (AI) technologies that people fear will change writing forever. Will AI be the death of authors, or are there valuable things we can learn that we can use to our advantage as writers?

  Join us as we explore the uniqueness of human creativity, the limitations of AI, insights into how AI is already baked into the publishing world in more ways than you might think, and how we can use AI to improve our writing. It’s a topic with many twists and turns and nuances that need to be explored to understand better how technology and writing work together.

  Michael Woudenberg is both a science fiction author and technologist who has researched and written extensively on AI and human psychology. He fuses the two in his debut novel Paradox: Book One of The Singularity Chronicles.

   Our last monthly Wordshop will be held at the Downtown Campus of Pima Community College, 1255 N. Stone Ave, Tucson, AZ, in the CC Building, Room 251. Download map HERE.

Looking Back
  The forthcoming May-June Write Word will be our last one, but we will be going out with a bang. The final issue will be a retrospective celebration of the Society of Southwestern Authors, which was founded in 1972. We will celebrate our fifty-two-year history and those members who made it a vital organization for so many years.
