    prowritingaid

    The key is this: Generative AI. Prowritingaid is not Generative AI until it is. Does that make sense? LMAO. I don't know what real AI tools it offers for rewriting, but that would be a major no-no. Spell check, grammar check, and all of that... well, nobody really gives a shit. Computers have...

    Fantasy Vertical Series - is anyone here watching them/writing them?

    Yeah, I haven't had my feet in the screenwriting waters for 20+ years, and got my feet wet enough in H'wood to know the water wasn't to my taste, LMAO. Indie films were always an interest and had one built up for a 50k budget at one point before pulling the plug when a couple of people were...

    Prose Style Concern

    I wouldn't be able to pick your first language from your use of English, but it does have notes of "second language" in there... but that isn't bad in fantasy prose. It could lend a certain strength, in fact. There is one main thing that would tempt me to put this down in line one...

    Upcoming Fantasy Anthology

    This will be a first for me! Justin Rose invited me into this little Fantasy Anthology and me being me I couldn't resist fleshing out some backstory on a villain character, Admiral Nikôdî tû Dêidontâ. For his short page time, so far, he is one of my favorite characters. Anyhow! The group is...

    Got told AI did a better job than me.

    Actually it’s quite good at teaching me stuff and doesn’t get pissed when I ask how to do something for 29th time like my coding friends lmao.

    How do y'all make up "fantasy names?"

    With my brain. It just does this shit. Readers have asked me several times how I make names and languages and I never have a real answer.

    Got told AI did a better job than me.

    In fairness to AI, its non creative abilities are awesome. I can code and debug shit in insane ways.

    Got told AI did a better job than me.

    Actually, AI is abit like Hollywood: it can't tell a new story.

    Got told AI did a better job than me.

    AI might "write better" and sure as hell will write faster, but it won't write the same story you will. It writes good copy and flashy, impressive shit like a new toy. Whatever.

    Is this copyright infringement?

    I wouldn’t fear the word Chateau, but whether or not other stuff gets too close I wouldn’t know. Odds on you’ll never make their radar anyhow. That said, all things become more alcoholic the longer you ferment them, upto a point of course. Yeast only survives to a certain point before you need...
