If I may coin a new phrase for my own purposes, "organic writing"; as a salute to the untrammeled and imperfect skill and style that I own as my own. Full of gram errors and punctuation problems, passives, archaisms, it needs editing and copy editing and beta reading and and. But the aims of the system, especially the Ai enhanced system, is to bring everything into the rule of rules, to iron out, to squash into boxes and, erm, essentially destroy the delightful serendipity of organic, authentic writing.
As someone who couldn't sell a copy of anything, why would I bother undertaking the professional full time tasks of a twenty strong team of experts? I'm just me, with my gremlin, sitting under a damp red-capped mushroom in a semi-real fairy woodland. To tame this gremlin seems wrong. Getting him to workout and wear a business suit would kill the wee faerie's desire to exist. Taking the mojo from such a tiny, non threatening gnome is just wrong.
So my excuses are made, right here and right now. The only place in the world left for me as a storyteller is the Grumblewood, where the Snarklefest will exist forever, hidden from the robots and the enslavers of fey-kind with their perfect mono-tone voices and polished limousines.
Due to my inability to produce pictorial art, excuse my use of ImageFX. Where I have an analogue artwork of my own creation, I can try to include it. Here's a creature I generated for Glofeyne, a 'Dust Fairy'. For some reason the Ai interpreted the face as a raccoon. I think it works well. But as for my writing, its going to be mine and mine alone, bugs, warts and skid-marks included. :-D
This is wonderful. I much prefer human writing to AI!
