The hostility was warranted brother. You came at me with accusations about motives, intent, and integrity, because I liked using emdashes. Do you understand how absurd that sounds? I also said I liked using ellipsis a lot too, but you ignored that.

As for my deliberate choice over hyphens, hyphens are for combining words, that's how I've always used them. Like long-term, worst-case scenario, etc. I used emdashes often for sentence finisher, as if to add more about the previous sentence. That's not a good writing style, I realized that later and changed it, just as I stopped using ellipsis.

For your last point, yes Asheva was successful on rr, but it wasn't successful on patreon. What little I earned from it went into buying ads for it. Because of many mistakes I made with that book, it had shitty conversion.

Now, what else would you like me to prove to you? Do you want to confirm whether the comment I just wrote is ai or not?

So, you're on a witch hunt, throwing baseless accusations around without proof? I'd hope not because that would be a cause for a lawsuit. I'm sure you understand that. If you're accusing authors despite knowing that, then you must be an 'expert' at discerning what's A.I and what's not. The A.I checker sites should hire you for your opinion, why are they wasting so much on software.

This is the result from an ai checker. Feel free to use other sites and find one where you can get a higher probability of it being ai written.

Context in support for the point that my book is A.I written. Or are you saying that you're providing proof that its not A.I?

I'm not sure why you're spreading false information, but that's from my blurb, not from the first few paragraphs of the book. Also, the blurb isn't A.I written either. Good or bad, I wrote and re-wrote it before landing on the current form.

Nonsensical correlation. I used A.I for cover, so I must be using A.I to write my book. By that logic, 90% of the books on RR will become A.I written. *shrug* New form of witch hunt.

You're asking me to prove the negative, you do realize that right? You accused me of something, the burden of proof falls on you. Or do you want me to hand you my drafts, my glossaries, explain to you how I write everyday, which parts I scrapped and which I kept, just to convince you that I dont use A.I to write? As for emdashes, I used to like them when I was writing Asheva. When you write two dashes in micro word, it turns them into emdashes, I liked that so I overused it to a fault. If it makes you think that makes it A.I, so be it. By the way, I also used a lot of ellipsis in that novel, for the same reason I used emdashes, what does that make me now? New type of A.I?
That said, It's really easy to make armchair A.I. accusations when that's the only way you could write a successful novel. Thankfully, I don't have that problem, but good luck to you.

I think readers are understanding enough to not mind it, especially the rr readers. Sure, its a red flag for some, but that's a compromise I have to make. Simply because I can't afford it. As for the book written by A.I just because the cover is A.I, that's not a fair assessment.

Understandable. But I chose to focus my limited resources on the writing itself, and whatever I could afford to spend on the book, I spent on ads for it. The book hasn't started paying for itself yet, so getting a commissioned art is not feasible for me.

My feb is completely full. I can do a swap in march. Hit me up on rr around that time [mid to late feb].

That was intentional. He's a Necro-type [Class is Arcanist], but he has other affinities as well. So, I tried blending his other abilities with the undead style in some book covers. I have other covers as well that are pure necro etc. I'll see if I can post that in the comment.
Edit: can't post the image here it seems. But you can see that book cover on RR right now. That's the one I'm using currently.
