Our own AI Positioning Statement
OK, Saturday morning, coffee in hand and I have already read several articles on the use of AI in publishers work, the pros and cons, the publishing issues, etc. I just finished an email from ALLi on The Detection Wars and its now stating that maybe we need to have our personal AI Position Statement prominently displayed on our website. Here is there words: "Whatever your position on AI, a clear policy tells readers, collaborators and retailers where you stand. Our free guide explains where ALLi stands and includes a sample policy to use as a starting point, in your own voice:" https://selfpublishingadvice.kit.com/ai-policy-orop26 I'm wondering your thoughts on this.

@Rob Cole no need to send the likes. All the ones you previously did have all disappeared. Is everyone doing this?

@Rob Cole thanks. I get frustrated trying to get all the stuff out of the box to empty. There are times when I'm away and can't get to it only to discover 50 things in the notification box. Ugh.

Financials
One of my main questions right now is how much people are realistically spending to get their books out there? Especially if you're more “low middle class,” living close to paycheck to paycheck, and don’t have $10,000 sitting around to invest. Are you financing it? Saving slowly and waiting couple years to launch? Just doing what you can and hope for the best? I mean this across all areas, so I put in general discussion category.

As a graphic designer I did my own covers. I have several classes, business class, writing class, publishing class, and a Makerspace class that allows me honest, free and helpful was to support my writings. Makerspace provides free printing for advertising posters, book marks, business cards, T-Shirts and buttons. The business class offers me advice and guidance on my front and rear covers, metadata plus other pertinent advertising materials. The writer's class offers me free editing, suggestions and my beta readers. Many of the people in the writer's group are retired teachers looking to stay involved and useful. I go where I know my readers are hanging out and leave cards post flyers. I'm currently looking at larger advertising billboards, bus benches and? My publishing class taught me to use MS Word and set up my own books for Amazon.

Looking for a font style
I know we have a great group of creatives in the house. I need a font style that is romantic, old world, special - like a keep sake. And for you comedians - no its not Time-New Roman or Helvetica (though I do love a great joke). What might you all suggest? Thanks much.

@Kevin Hall you can check Google fonts, Font Squirrel, fontSpace, and DaFont. These sites will allow you to preview the font before you download it. Some are free some are paid. The choice is up to you.

@Gary Anderson Google it and ask if the font is free for commercial use.
