But somewhere between the extremes, there’s a quieter reality that doesn’t get talked about as often: how it’s actually being used by writers trying to tell meaningful stories. This isn’t a defense of AI, and it’s not a warning either. It’s simply an honest look at how I use it in my own work, the good, the bad, and the ugly.]]></description><link>https://www.tjnilsdatter.com/post/ai-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69cad03f20141e70489d278a</guid><pubDate>Mon, 30 Mar 2026 21:14:13 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/44e61c_ee8b967c9a054f35a02db05e9b19c6fb~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_940,h_400,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>TJ Nilsdatter</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Meet Regina: The Heart of The Sunstone Path]]></title><description><![CDATA[Regina is woven into all of that. She belongs to this place, even as the place keeps costing her. Regina is not a woman who talks about her feelings easily. She is the person her family turns to. Not because she volunteered, exactly, but because she is simply the one who shows up, and people learn, over time, that she will always show up.]]></description><link>https://www.tjnilsdatter.com/post/meet-regina-the-heart-of-the-sunstone-path</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69c17aa1adda444fefaec5a0</guid><pubDate>Mon, 23 Mar 2026 18:34:17 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/44e61c_5352f4d541b744dcb7f5f57b52dcd7a6~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_940,h_400,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>TJ Nilsdatter</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Lake Wenatchee: Where Memories Meet the Mountains]]></title><description><![CDATA[Some places stay with you long after you leave them. Lake Wenatchee is one of those places for me. Nestled in the Cascade Mountains of Washington State, it’s where towering pines meet clear blue water and the world seems to quiet down for a while. Over the years, trips to Lake Wenatchee became more than just camping weekends; they became chapters in our family story.]]></description><link>https://www.tjnilsdatter.com/post/lake-wenatchee-where-memories-meet-the-mountains</link><guid isPermaLink="false">69b5ecf64898c9cce5a2c068</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Mar 2026 16:00:21 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/44e61c_ecf0692566a54d019cf1442358229ad6~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>TJ Nilsdatter</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why I write]]></title><description><![CDATA[People often ask writers why they write.
