Indie author

D.J. Brien

D.J. Brien writes about artificial intelligence, writing, and the increasingly complicated business of independent publishing. Her books combine practical experience with humor and an abiding interest in what happens when new technology meets the ordinary work of writing and publishing a book. Her books include The Machine That Knew Better, Writers: How to Train Your AI, and Your Book Is the Easy Part: How Independent Publishing Turned Writers Into an Entire Production Department. From learning how to work effectively with AI to navigating the expanding job description of the independent author, Brien writes about the experience from inside it—with curiosity, skepticism, and a willingness to laugh when the machinery becomes ridiculous.
