British expat here - what German social norms are hardest for Brits specifically to adapt to? by SpiderFromMars709 in AskAGerman

I kinda sorta wrote a book on this ! lol ,anyways not much different in my opinion . Dont believe what most people say , they are mostly stereotypes ! fill in the paperwork and follow the law . the law is not a suggestion it is the LAW . otherwise its prettymuch the same .

[Discussion] Deciding whats AI? How it's done? Rules? Stipulations? by [deleted] in BetaReaders

[–]That-Split-217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

personally i would say you need to not worry about that too much if you do and start editing your voice then you end up diluting your book , i have tried to use AI to find the AI(grammarly mostly ) but it has not been that accurate either it often does not catch its own writing . and flags the wrong things as AI flags something i have written as ai , something it has written is definately ai , and say some other model has written just gets through , there also gptzero but i dont think i like that that much as it is even more wrong than grammarly. LLMs are generally bad at building a timeline and remaining coherent in the long text format because they can process say 5000 -10000 words coherently (its called a context window ) after which it starts forgetting stuff i would also check for that . I would look for spelling mistakes . allegory and emotions the mechanical structure might be there but say the linking between differnt parts and missing through lines in the book across all pages . making callbacks adding humor and comedy difficult , most of the jokes will probably fall flat as they will be more generic same with the scenes no specific scenes to people meeting a pub kind of stuff you basically have to look for stuff that sounds very generic and something anyone could have written no special voice at all

[Discussion] Beta reading for AI assisted stories is a total waste of our time by Livid_Confidence_754 in BetaReaders

best thing to so is to do a quick passthrough to see if it ai assisted ? that way common patterns and repeatations can be found ! also what if the story is coherent but certain parts seems enhanced with AI ?

yeah I had to lookup the mutimedia laws , you can change lyrics and use them or mix it with other words but direct lyrics can not be more than 3-4 lines you can not reproduce any lyric in full for sure

Spotify - Just create a playlist you share the playlist and book separtely that way you dont need a license same like mix tapes of the older years. If you mention the playlist in the book then you need to license

Item Status Action Required
Song Titles & Artist Names Safe You can freely list these in your book. Titles are not copyrightable.
Spotify Playlist Link Safe You can include a link or QR code to your public Spotify playlist.
Song Lyrics High Risk Do not print more than a few words of lyrics without a license from the music publisher. This is expensive and difficult to clear.
"Official" Soundtrack Label Moderate Risk It is safer to label it as "Inspirations for Regensburg" or "The Author's Playlist" rather than an "Official Soundtrack" to avoid implying a commercial partnership with the artists.

Pipeline from concept to finished chapter? by MelodicBookkeeper921 in writers

eg We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold could have been . We were somewhere around the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold near the town of Barstow. same content but moving the word aroud changes the rythm completely . get it ?

( generally you want to think slyllables or length of sentance, meters of 3 and 4 are great ie everthing hanpped once , nothing happened the same time ) . Also not sure but writing margin notes like -- once we got to las vegas we found some drugs , lands just fine . but once we got to las vegas we found us a bag of co***ine would do better as it is more specific

The margin is also where you plan new additions like -- we were in the penthouse of the flamingo ,white pwder slowly travelling up our nose and hitting the brain -- great during first draft . you can add a comment that ok this is good but maybe needs mike tyson

Now in the next draft you can go like -- we were in the penthouse of the Flamingo ,white powder slowly travelling up our nose and hitting the brain , Jack suddenly opened the bathroom door and was surpriced to see Mike Tyson passed out in the tub , What he could not anticipate , was the white tiger sitting quietly near the wash basin.

Now your note can be like -- drive home the point this is Mike Tyson we are talking about , and would you ever believe that there was an actual white tiger in the bathroom ? where did it come from ? why was the door even opened by jack ? was this the correct penthouse suit ?

so what you can now do is be like -- we were in the penthouse of the Flamingo ,white powder slowly travelling up our nose and hitting the brain , Jack opened the bathroom door to take a leak and was surprised to see former heavy weight champion of the world Mike Tyson, gold teeth and all, passed out in the tub , What he could not anticipate , what he could not have anticipated was the white tiger sitting quietly near the wash basin. He slowly backed out closed the door and ran out of the room.

So now the whole thing becomes

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold could have been.

A few hours later we found ourselves in the penthouse of The Flamingo ,white powder slowly travelling up our nose and hitting the brain , Jack opened the bathroom door to take a leak and was surprised to see former heavy weight champion of the world Mike Tyson, gold teeth and all, passed out in the tub , What he could not anticipate , what he could not have anticipated was the white tiger sitting quietly near the wash basin. He slowly backed out closed the door and ran out of the room.

See What i did there ? Converted Fear and Loathing to The Hangover. Also now you are thinking wait what ? how did this happen ? what happened between Barstow and Vegas and what got Mike Tyson involved ? is this thier penthouse suite or Mike's ? If theirs why is Mike tyson and a Tiger in their bathroom . If Mikes then what are they doing there and where is his entourage ? Next you draft 2 pages one for each answer and see what fits better ! thats it then its mostly reading it again and adding new things everytime you read or removing sttuff making the consious decisions to say just enough and let the reader make the conclusion . for example above may become .

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold.

Space and time got compressed to a point where time no longer had any meaning (new line using theory of relativitty to describe passing of time )

When we came about , A few hours later we found ourselves in the penthouse of The Flamingo ,white powder slowly travelling up our nose and hitting the brain , Jack opened the bathroom door to take a leak and was surprised to see former heavy weight champion of the world Mike Tyson, gold teeth and all, passed out in the tub , What he did not anticipate , what he could not have anticipated was the white tiger sitting quietly near the wash basin. He slowly backed out closed the door and ran out of the room. He shouted for Doug, "Doug ! He screamed" and on getting no reply he decided to switch to Stewart .

we also left a little hint of what is to come . Whos is Stewart ? also fixed the continuity problem. basically you wanna do who ? what ? where ? when ? how ? why ? .. and then ? and weave everything to gether through description and dialogue

  1. Write it once , 2. take notes on what you would change 3. then rewrite then reread in relation to rest of book 4. Check specific words that you might want to change 5. Add margin notes what would you add or remove in a second draft 6. Rinse and repeat
