In this episode of Brave New Bookshelf, hosts Steph Pajonas and Danica Favorite sit down with award-winning author and mentor Coral Hart to discuss the "tsunami of change" currently hitting the publishing industry. Following a high-profile feature in the New York Times, Coral opens up about the intense backlash she’s faced and why she remains a steadfast advocate for using AI as a "ninja tool" to accelerate the creative workflow without sacrificing craft. From challenging common myths about copyright and environmental impact to explaining why human-led story structure is the essential secret to avoiding "AI slop," this conversation is a must-listen for any author navigating the intersection of technology, tradition, and the future of storytelling.
