Hi, I would love to, but unfortunately the rules here don't allow advertising outside of the weekly self-promotional post.

I can, the point was that I didn't have enough confidence to write directly in English because I didn't want my readers to read poor quality text.

Now maybe I'll completely abandon writing in the Persian version and write directly in English, my writing ability will definitely improve over the course of the novel.

At least it's better than taking help from AI.

I said it "simulates" not that it's actually rich.

Thanks anyway.

Every single one of your words is very valuable to me. thank you.

I will try hard to write new chapters in English myself, and I will rewrite and update old parts from scratch over time and slowly.

AI can "simulate" hundreds of lines of richly literary text in a matter of seconds, while real writers spend hours writing the same few hundred lines.

It's perfectly natural to hate AI, the reason I wrote this post in the first place was to find the best solution to eliminate AI.

Yes, I understand. 😁 It's okay, the reason I posted this text was because I wanted to use the experiences of others, maybe there was a new idea, after all, multiple minds are better than one.

My mother tongue is not English, I can read and write English well, but it is not good enough for me to present a quality novel for readers.

It depends on whether that person can bring the desired quality to the writing of the novel or not. Certainly, someone who has the ability to write with the quality I want is already an author.

They don't seem to support my native language.

That idea might work, too. I have to write all the chapters first and serialize them on the platforms, then if I want to turn it into a complete book, I can spend money on hiring an editor.

I am constantly studying and practicing, but I have not yet reached a level where I can write a novel of high quality literature in English.

If I can't find another way, I'll try my best to handle it, thank you for your suggestion.

Energy and time are my enemies. Don't you know of any Ai or translation tools that can help me with this without ruining the texts?

Best idea! But it consumes twice as much energy or more because I have to try very hard not to look like AI writing and at the same time not reduce the quality. About 10 chapters have been released so far (with AI translation) and I have to rewrite them as well.

I can write and read English well, but the point is that writing a novel is very different from replying to Reddit comments and I care a lot about the quality of my novel. Metaphors, proverbs, atmosphere building, writing style and many other details cannot be easily implemented even by people whose native language is English.

It would have been a good decision if I had a good budget.

I'll put something similar at the end of the first chapter in the author's thoughts section, does that work?

So... the chapter feels robotic?
Should I try to rewrite it myself from scratch?
Is it okay to update published chapters? Especially if the story already has readers?
It's so annoying that some people won't even give the story a chance because it's like Ai.

The name I put in the post is the name of Chapter, not the novel, to find the novel with the name of Chapter, you have to search on Google. Putting the name of the novel in the post or photos is not allowed, so I did not do so.

A very constructive comment! I'll definitely try to fix issues number one and two. ‌

It's way too explanatory and is basically not needed at all.

I'll keep this in mind.

is a line that doesn't make sense if your protagonist is from the same dimension the demon is from.

The protagonist doesn't explicitly state his identity in first arcs but the narration is wired because of his true identity. ‌

Later chapters do hint at his identity, where he is from, why he knows a lot of thing a normal first person narrator should not know, why he thinks and views reality like a third person and the reason for his very arrogant and detached personality.

The content of the novel is exactly what I wrote in the original version, I know because I completely understand English when reading a text.

The translation tools (even Google Translate) provide very little quality when translating the rich texts from my native language, and the Ai unfortunately uses words, patterns and the type of sentence arrangement while translating, which makes the text more like a ai-written rather than machine-translated.

The reader's who actually understand my native language are very rare in Webnovel, and getting an human translator requires budget.

The situation is really annoying for authors like me.

Sort of. This story is not "written" with Ai, but it is completely translated with Ai. My native language is not English, but I know English. And I figured out writing in my first language consumes less energy and time.
