I'm a bit of an eclectic mess 🙂 I've been a programmer, journalist, editor, TV producer, and a few other things.

I'm currently working on my second novel which is complete, but is in the edit stage. I wrote my first novel over 20 years ago but then didn't write much till now.

I post about #Coding, #Flutter, #Writing, #Movies and #TV. I'll also talk about #Technology, #Gadgets, #MachineLearning, #DeepLearning and a few other things as the fancy strikes ...

Yesterday's Pratchett novel title prompt was: "Raising Steam".

Here's the thing about the prompt — I generated images on macOS initially and I was happy with the images I was getting since I was getting strange stuff. Nothing really to do with the prompt possibly, but all sorts of weird and wonderful landscapes 🙂

Then I switched to Windows for generation and suddenly all I'd get were trains or some sort of steam engine. Not a lot of variety ... No matter how many models I tried 😛

I've selected a mixed set from both sides for fair representation but I feel as if this needs more exploration ...

Yesterday's Pratchett novel title prompt was: "Snuff"

I didn't really expect much from that one since there isn't a lot to work with there. But I still got some interesting images 🙂

These are from multiple models and so the styles are a little different across images. But still, I thought the end results were interesting ...
