Midjourney Monday: The Bennets’ Drawing Room in the Space Regency
I have like one line in the space regency about Longbourn having a drawing room with turquoise walls and pink furniture, but Midjourney kind of ran amok with the idea when I prompted it.
Music Monday By Suno: Door Into Summer
Suno wouldn’t let me use the opening paragraphs of Robert Heinlein’s Door Into Summer as song lyrics (no, it’s not a copyright issue, I’ve gotten Suno to use Star Wars dialogue as lyrics in the past), so instead I gave it a general prompt based on the anecdote of the cat who won’t accept that all doors lead to winter snow: https://suno.com/song/a611bcd1-1579-45bf-ae34-0a2f2732d4e7?sh=Rvqz0Izo10EGxrJv

Sometimes I use Midjourney to brainstorm what settings in my novels look like. And sometimes that works, and sometimes, as with this alleged depiction of a stable aboard a steampunk airship, it really doesn’t.
Friday Fragments: Alternate Geneaology Conversation
Note: this was cut from a longer discussion about Maxim and Chloe dealing with the possibility of being too closely related to marry. Parts of this backstory may reappear in some other part of Hunter Healer King 3 This is dictation transcribed by Whisper and cleaned up by Claude AI, without additional revision. You may spot some misspelled place names below and some examples of why I feel obliged to revise and rewrite after dictation cleanup.

We were, several of us together, lamenting laundry chores on Discord, so I asked Suno to write lyrics and music to a country western song about laundry.
Midjourney Monday
There’s a passing reference in Undead Flight to “the new mooring tower in Upper Haupstadt,” and I was trying to visualize what that might look like for the current work in progress. Here’s Midjourney’s best shot at it:
