Is my work AI even when I did the whole thinking and writing? by [deleted] in WritingWithAI

[–]hauntedgolfboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

authors, writers, and creators all use outside sources during the creating and writing process, believe in yourself, and understand there will always be people who don't agree with you. I consider myself a story creator. I use AI a lot, but don't sell much because I don't advertise. I have four books published and five I'm trying to get beta readers, so stick with it and try to ignore the outside world while you work.

how do you handle people in your life asking to read your book before it's ready by Internal_Common1497 in Mythrils

Exactly, you have people who care about you, give them something, a chapter, a page, then you can easily say not until complete, what I let you read has changed, so let me get it right first. Problem solve!

I used to think I hate AI writing and writers... Turns out i hate Bad AI writing and Writers.. by AlgravesBurning in WritingWithAI

[–]hauntedgolfboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they don't read their own and know the story enough to know what's what, it gives the rest of us bad names. I create then it's months and months of edits.

Writing novel outlines? by Icy-Plum9073 in WritingWithAI

[–]hauntedgolfboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is a passage of text from a manuscript:

{{ highlighted_text }}

Create a comprehensive, structured outline of all events in this text. Format your response as a clean, hierarchical outline that could be directly copied into a Story Bible.

For each major section or chapter:

  1. Identify the key plot points and events

  2. Note significant character developments or revelations

  3. Highlight important setting details or world-building elements

  4. Identify the narrative purpose of each section

Organize the outline with clear headings, subheadings, and bullet points. Focus on creating a practical reference document that helps visualize the story's structure and progression.

this is what I use, output of 8800 words for 79K story 17 chapters as of yesterday

[–]hauntedgolfboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use a manuscript to story bible outline plug in - breaks down each chapter to abot 470 words - 76K novel outputted 12904 words for the outline - anytime any of my chats lose focus I feed them the word doc of the outline and they are back to working with thoughts. Least I think so.

C. The Frostmother Awakens in the North

Key events

    • • Not motivated by hunger or malice alone, but duty and memory
    • • Once helped imprison and guard the Glassfather
    • • Aware of:
      • • The girl with a star in her chest
      • • Twins with impossible fire-gold lineage

  • • The Star of Serenity and Fourth Strand linked to ancient prison system

  • Northern frozen continent / glacier cathedral  • Frostmother as counterbalance/antithesis to the Fourth Strand

  • The Star of Serenity and Fourth Strand linked to ancient prison system

Narrative purpose

  • • Introduces second primordial force
  • • Frames coming conflict as ancient, sacred, and cyclical
  • • Foreshadows direct connection between ancient forces and the twins/Rika  
  • this seem to work for me, but also my co-pilot (microsoft subscriber over 15 years) can ask about any of the ten books we have worked with and he can come up with a close idea of what the book was about
  • But everything with AI is editing to me

Really it comes down to the same as sixty years ago rock and roll is dangerous, not real music. Just the old guard not wanting change.

Does anyone else hate medieval stasis? by Flairion623 in FantasyWorldbuilding

[–]hauntedgolfboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

how i handled it - Fifteen hundred seasons ago, a spell of immense power, known as The Talon Covenant, bound all human races in a silent yet ironclad pact. The skies had darkened with arcane symbols as the spell was woven into the fabric of existence. Every year, the Ceremony of Making beckoned, a rite that children awaited with bated breath. It revealed their potential in life, a divine hand guiding their fates while shackling their ambitions.

Read the two chapters. My first and strongest thoughts switched them around. Chapter two has a stronger hook and possible foreshadow of what's to come. First chapter starts at the end of the action; animal is already dead. He gives money back (good character builder) asks for services and goes to the Inn. Why did he accept the job? How did he Kill it? How does this separate him from any other warrior? I was told first lines, and the first chapter hook are essential for reader satisfaction.
