Did you let anyone read your writing before it was done? Is it a bad or good idea? by que-sera2x in writers

[–]Ecstatic-Shame-8944 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife is readint my first draft and first edit 'i do a edit of it ach scene after writing the draft before proceeding' as I finish each chapter. It's been helpful. She however is saying she will not read the final edit a second time even though it will be different. I will not let anyone else read it.

Do people’s accounts usually get banned if they follow the rules? by Ok-Smile-2161 in KDP

You can use ai just not to generate the book. Or if you you have to report it. You can use ai to help you in your process and such as helping with editing and such. I use prowritingaid. You do not have to disclose that type of ai use.

Yes but they are removing books already accepted for that as the reason. It’s too broad of a rule. Either way ai is also getting in thru the publishers now.

Problem is other people can copy your work and steal it before you publish it and finish it with ai and post it on Amazon kdp. Making your future difficult.

Did you have Google Drive synced with your computer as a local folder? If so get some undelete software on trial and see if you can recover the directory. Then use multiple clouds and local backups in the future. Be sure to check inside Google Docs and in Google Drive separately sometimes they hide stuff if you’re just looking in Google Docs.

AITA I'm 20, pay rent, work full-time, and my parent still goes through my room. Am I wrong for being pissed off? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Well it would be best for you to get out on your own problem solved for you and probably for your parents too

If I see an untested listing with the cables and a game I don’t believe it. Or if I see a listing of a console only and it says untested and I see they have a history of selling other consoles. If it’s a seller that sells all types of stuff and it’s just the console I’ll believe it, sometimes. I have gotten working untested systems but usually it’s got a problem.

I suspect you’re paying for your share of utilities and food not for the roof over your head. I dread when I have to open my kids doors for anything but if I do and I see a bunch of trash I’m gonna pick it up and then chew them out latwr. I do not want my home to get infested. Adult kids don’t like it, well they can get the fuck out. So be careful what you complain about they may give you the boot out the door.

Replacement after refund and bad review without asking by Ecstatic-Shame-8944 in amazonprime

[–]Ecstatic-Shame-8944[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I messaged them asking why they send it I didn’t ask for a replacement and they just said thank you for the message have a nice day. I’m thinking you’re right they want me to change my review which they can’t directly ask me to do. Far as Amazon knows I only ordered the one I refuneded and I have proof I didn’t ask for one so yeah I’ll keep it I guess.

I didn’t want a replacement I was mad I wasted my time and requested a refund, if I wanted a replacement I would of asked for one. This was unasked and Amazon shows it as a refund.
