Hello Writer Friends! SXSW, the awesome film, music, and interactive festival in Austin, is calling for submissions to the David Carr Prize for Emerging Writers.  I happened to win this award last year, and it was such a fun experience. Write 2000 on the topic below. The winner gets flown to the festival, put up in a fancy hotel, and receives a snazzy award along with full access to SXSW. Deadline is December 16, so get writing! 
          	
          	Here's the prompt: What will it mean to be human in the age of machine learning and artificial intelligence? What will this mean to you in terms of human creativity, identity, love, communication, and community? Given that current AI-based algorithms are a big part of today’s fake news problem, your essay might also address human solutions to this pressing issue.

@obsMelsmp Hello there! Thank you for your wonderful message. It's encouragement like this that keeps me writing! I'm so grateful to Wattpad and to people like you. I'm working on a new book! I do have a little novella on Amazon called Book Club. It's a fun, quick read. I've been thinking about putting it up on Wattpad. PM me and I'll be happy to send it to you. xoxo, Jaime

I love Conquest. It opened my eyes about the power my own womanliness and sexuality. As a young adult, I asked myself many questions addressed in your stories and it was there I found some answers. So for that, thank you.

Thank you so much for writing Conquest! I honestly couldn't stop reading and felt terrible when it ended. It helped me in ways I cannot describe! You're a brilliant author! ❤

Good morning, FOB! (Friend of Brie)
          
          I'm blasting you with story parts this fine Saturday because  I'm entering Conquest into the #Wattys2016 and want to get the full story out there into the Wattosphere. Can't wait to hear what you think!  Keep your comments coming! They feed my soul.
          
          xoxo,
