Dear authors and aspiring writers, My name is Rose Cano, a student at Syracuse University and I am interested in your perspective regarding a project I am undergoing. For this assignment, I am looking at how technology affects writers financially, creatively, along with other aspects as well. This is an important topic that is at the forefront of my curiosity because of the popularity of AI generators. This project is for those actively in the field of literature and those who have dreams of doing so one day. My project focuses on the practical and creative implications, especially regarding AI, for both current and future writers. I would greatly appreciate your insights for this project! Thank you for your time, Rose Cano

I chose these sources because two of them stuck with me for the culture that was displayed in them.
