AI-generated implies a majority of the output is copy-pasted from generative software. It's generally understood that it is generated if you asked something like "write the first chapter of a story about two drow lovers." If you instead copy a story you wrote and then ask "can you help me fix...

This applies to all of them; Copilot, Gemini, ChatGPT, etc. Bouncing off ideas with them still counts as AI-assisted, even if you chose to not act on anything it suggests; you got something out of it. Maybe confirmation you did something right. Maybe it seeded an idea for the future. You can...

Yes, you are correct. The tool you use and how you use it is AI-Assisted. My fear is they would ask to be banned from trending/homepage rather than simply choosing to ignore it.

On RR my story has the AI-assisted tag. I've had people refuse to engage with it because of it. It's the same storty I post here, so I would tag it too. I tag because I use editing software. A lot of people use those tools. I chose to tag it because I want to help normalise it; everybody uses...

AI is actually a pretty decent ressource to ask for summaries of something, so feeding it a novel and asking for a blurb might give you a decent starting point. But it's bad at understanding what to tease, and what to reveal outright. It doesn't understand how to write a blurb in which you hint...

Some claim to, but it's literally impossible to tell them apart. If you use AI enough, you develop a sixth sense of some kind where you can tell. It loves some particular idioms a lot ("... and maybe—just maybe—" is one of the typical one, but seeing that in a text doesn't mean it's AI. "You're...

Poetry on a blurb would make nope the hell out. Epigraph at the start of a chapter? Sure.

I think people have covered most of what I wanted to say. Blurb 1 is better than 2, but it's relative. There's way too much jargon in Blurb1. Here's my attempt at keeping most of your key elements, but making them understandable to outsiders. "Callahan and Rowan, two brothers, are on a quest...

People who love em-dashes—like me!—are really going to get accused of being AI writers all the time before long, aren't we? Le sigh. It annoys me because as a divergent thinker, it's really the best way for me to write on paper how my brain operates (although I suppose I could use parenthesis...

I freeze as I hear, though the baby monitor, the lullaby my long-dead wife used to sing to our child.

According to trackbear, all my recent writing sessions/day have been ~4500 words. That's usually over the course of a 3~5 hours. So around 1000-1500 words/hour seems to be my pace, similar to my fellow French colleague in this thread, AmbreaTaddy

Don’t Reduce Me I see your curiosity, You want to know me? Labels pigeon-hole me, sorry. Please, don’t reduce me. I am more than my years of scholarity, Or the paper trails of my degree. I am more than my ancestry, Or the genetics passed down to me. I am more than my notoriety, I do not end...

"I tried so hard to wipe her tears, to embrace her tenderly, to let know I am there, but alas, she cannot feel my touch, for she is alive, and I am no longer." -recollections of anguish

Some mage in your fantasy setting used Find Familiar. Your MC is the poor bloke whose spirit got ripped out of their body, now incarnating a magical construct of the wizard's choice. DnD only says Find Familar summons a spirit from another plane, it doesn't go in great detail who is, or how...

Gender-bender wasn't in your list of dislikes, so I will throw my dystopian, near-fufure, slice-of-life, ensemble-cast, LGBTQ+ friendly, VRMMO LitRPG-lite in the bucket: https://www.scribblehub.com/series/1360568/state-of-the-art/

Dune and Messiah (book 1 and 2) are focused on Paul, Dune 3 is Children of Dune in which the twins, Leto Jr and his Ghanima, battle their oppressive aunt, Alia (that's my my favourite Dune novel) Dune 4 is Emperor God, and when I dropped it. Huge time skip, and it's this mess of politics with...

Pirateaba, The Wandering Inn is my favourite I guess Robert Jordan, The Great Hunt (Wheel of Time volume 2) would be my least favourite. I don't recall any other book I dropped as quickly—I didn't make it past chapter 1. Oddly enough, my two other dropped books in memory: Emperor God of Dune...

Nice to meet you, VeeTee. Have fun on the forums!

I don't swear much usually in my novel, but I have a character who does a lot, in a recent chapter. Enough that I added an extra TW at the start of the chapter.
