Average AI-using righter

Not a thought in that empty head other than, "Derp durrrr huh?" Wondering about the next prompt he should use, but forming words in the brain is *hard*. Time to write them down, but how to spell "novel" or "story"? "Hell if I no, I ujewly yuse AI to chek the speling for me."

Now I can focus purely on righting!

A great man once told me, "Eat man fish, day he, to fishing lifetime."

To translate into authorial terms, "One should learn to read before one rights."

Reading has always been the biggest barrier to righting for me. Studying the greats like Leo Toystory, J. K. Tolking, K@$H Patel, and Steven Seagal seems insurmountable.

Thankfully, courtesy of the brilliant minds in Silicon Valley, I do not have to read the greats as AI can now do that for me! At last, I can focus purely on righting!

E = mc^2 + AI, a complete proof

Has anyone else presented a complete proof on this result? I was thinking about submitting mine to NeurIPS. I have proven it for A=0 and all I or I=0 and all A. In all other cases, the equation is false. Claude Fable 5 was used in support of this proof.

Why haven't I just been using this the entire time?

I've spent close to a year just reaching 100K words, so imagine my chagrin when I learned there was a tool for righters like this! Imagine being free of the most arduous part of publishing a book itself: the actual righting! That it also produces high quality art at the same time is just the cherry on top! I just put in my prompt and the software outputs delicious prose that I was always capable of righting myself, I just didn't have time to.

Which cover is better for my new Webnovel?

It's called 100 doggos that really, really love you. Cover art is two prompts by GenericAI.

"Please disprove my mathematical proof of creationism." Okay, how do you define dividing by zero? Because this is the first page of math in the paper.

The argument is that "If I am intelligent enough to build a world from scratch, then it follows a divine being could also do so." Something like that. Their latest attempt (after this) was pure GenAI slop.

I won at righting!

I posted my first chapter on r/writingfeedback and received ZERO feedback. It has already been 3 days and no one can find a flaw; that is to say, it is perfect. Most of the esteemed righters in that illustrious sub provide near instant vitriol targeted at the volunteer posters' lack of talent. Not me, for I left no openings to be exploded. Even my social media posts are perfect in execution.

In fact, I was downvoted twice, solely because the righters in that sub were jealous of my prodigious talent. I have mastered righting, you see, and have **finally** won!

My new critically acclaimed light novel launches on Kimble Plus this month!

Hello, everyone. I'm pleased to announce the print release of my award winning novel: *That Time I Was Reincarnated as the Grand Wizard of the Kingdom of Kark Klenia, but I was supposed to attend an important vote in my old life!*

It was picked up by PageTurner Press and will be released to Kimble Plus, the premier eBook and print book ordering platform this month!

I wrote this story in honor of my dear friend who tragically passed away four weeks ago. I reimagine him in a cooler world full of magic where he is reincarnated as a totally hot and nubile 14-y/o girl--remember she's like 100 years old mentally speaking.

The initial arc covers her rise to power as she tries to protect the king from slanderous scientists accusing him of slavery, bribery, theft, and murder by ensuring every trial is presided over by members of the king's loli slave harem. Eventually, the king is acquitted of wrongdoing; however, my next arc has this king (more treacherous than Michu-sama anticipated) turning on my beloved heroine in order to make her into another of his slave wives!

Art is by the inimitable Chad Gesner Petrucci-Tellerman.

Dark Fantasy Critique Partners/Writing Groups

Genre/s: Dark Fantasy, Horror

Goals/expectations/commitment: I can probably manage to read 2-3 chapters a week and provide a single chapter myself for feedback (speed may increase once I get over my vertigo).

Writing/experience level: Experienced, but not in fiction (provided link to sample below).

Meeting place: Discord

Max size: 5 (more if folks just want to beta read and not have their work reviewed by me)

Looking for a very small collaborative beta reader/author group (preferably through Discord). My work is in-progress: The Hatred (currently at 90K words, planning to ~double it).

Most of the leads are women and more than half of the romances so far are sapphic. I mix Chinese, Japanese, and Filipino folklore with pagan European mythology. I was actually inspired by Bloodborne when I first came up with this world.

I commission art for my work that's very anime inspired, but I don't think it's tropey as my literary influences are Herbert, Bakker, Erikson, and Abercrombie.

Sharing the opening chapter so you can see my style (to be fair, the voice changes by POV, so this character reads much more crass than some of the others).

The Hatred Opening Chapter.

u/Baihu_The_Curious — 9 days ago

Opening Chapter (Dark Fantasy) - Link in description.

From an in-progress work: The Hatred (currently at 90K words). So far, I've only had two others read it, so I'm grateful for diverse feedback. I've a fair amount of writing experience, but this is my first delve into fantasy fiction. Big fan of Erikson, Abercrombie, Bakker, and Herbert.

Warnings: Violence, crude humor, sexual themes (non-violent).

Is it wrong to portray grooming/mind control in a romantic light?

So, here's the jist. The groomer is a hot succubus, the groomed is a young college girl (heroine). The groomer takes advantage of the groomed's delusions of grandeur and her intense feelings of longing to manipulate the young girl into loving her. She does things like...

Convince her that her best friend is why she couldn't find love after so long (she's a femcel)

Claim her behavior is normal and perfectly justified (it's not)

Give her a lust crest that causes her to be more aroused around the succubus and more willing to engage in sexy acts

Smother her with her big bazoongas which give off an aphrodisiac scent

Fuel her savior complex (a researcher who is saving the world...)

Mind control the heroine into playing along with bizarre damsel-in-distress kinks that end with the damsel *rewarding* the heroine with cunnilingus.

But here's the problem. The narrative plays it off as hot, justified, or a blessing for the groomed rather than an actual problem, which is what I'm so worried about. The thing is, the groomer genuinely loves the groomed with all her heart and literally kills and fights for her multiple times against even worse fates. I mean, even without the grooming, groomed would likely still fall in love.

So, is it okay to depict grooming/manipulation in this way? Do I need to dial it down? Do I need to add consequences to her actions? If so, what how? (There's no way I'm taking my favorite character's lover. I love her too much.)

Edit: Some extra context. The groomer in question is technically a mimic (like those chest monsters, complete with tentacle insides) in succubus form. She knows what's right and wrong but lacks any real moral constraint. The heroine also tries to stop her and calls her out, but she's way too strong, so she just gives up. Groomed also just... doesn't care (her whole arc is literally abandoning her morals/values), and is incredibly down bad. This is not smut or hentai, btw.

Just released my new book!

Hey everyone,

I guess it is finally time I leave this subreddit. It's been a blast, but... I actually have been writing this entire time. I know... I'm a complete sham like those people who go to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings when they don't even drink--not even water--just so they can get attention. Turns out I'm not just a memer after all. What can I say?

I decided to publish in the Isekai genre. I know it's a very challenging genre to write in due to its high literary standards, but I believe I have something that no one else has done before: my protagonist is a real person from our world! I'm not going to say who, because that is part of the mystery, but all I will say is that he is a master debater.

It *is* a harem, although the first chick he marries is an elf who has recently won a beauty contest in her kingdom. She is his sole wife for the first three acts (out of seven).

I have lots of quirky characters like a rotund man named Jade who is married to a sentient couch that can fly (it's their main means of transport), a failed businessman suffering from an inferiority complex who my MC befriends and tutors, and a mage who has been appointed archwizard of an empire despite barely knowing any magic!

These people will become quite powerful in the world thanks to my MC's messaging--I suppose they don't really improve as people though, their status only improves as a result of said meddling.

Anyway, please check it out as it'll be available on Amaze Kindred soon!

Where is your favourite place to right?

I find that where I choose to right has a big impact on how productive I am. For example, if I'm in a coffee shop, I'm always worried about jealous authors shoulder surfing who are going to steal all my ideas that have never been done before.

I do all write in bed, but it's too easy to get distracted and start jorking it to yuri hentai, although I do find the plotlines and the righting of such works of art motivational for my own novel, so it's not completely lost time.

I get the most productivity in the bathroom, particularly in the bath. Usually, I get myself nice and comfy with some pumpkin pie and lay my manuscript across my bosom, which is like a bloody table, I swear (it's usually a good spot for my boba--booba boba, rather?). I know it doesn't seem practical, but everyone is different!

Where do you like to right the most?

My dark empress is supposed to be the villain but she's... Right???

So, here's the deal...

I've read the political greats like TenseiSlime, Realist Hero, Code Geass, etc. I've got a pretty good idea for my power fantasy world that's also a political thriller (I don't know if I can beat the intricacies of TenseiSlime, but I'll really try!) and I made the **dark empress** my villain.

Well... I wrote this long monologue that she gives towards the captured heroine as she's forced to worship the empress's feet.

She talks about abolishing the hereditary monarchy, codify bodily autonomy into law, legalize same-sex marriage, improve agricultural infrastructure, and all this stuff.

It was supposed to sound evil.

Instead, I ran it back and realized... My dark empress isn't evil at all! Meanwhile, my heroines are fighting tooth and nail to preserve this archaic world order that leads to starving minorities and orphans that freeze in the street.

I accidentally made the evil empire the good guys!

Now I'm frantically rewriting three chapters so that the dark empress skins some puppies or murders some villagers, just for kicks. I suppose it will make my work seinen, but *complex politics* already make it so!

Ugh, to make it obvious the empress was the bad one, I should've just given her a skull throne and a bunch of unwilling, hot lesbian slaves with big bazongas who are forced to wear bikinis and clean the throne with their tongues.

How do I make a genocide sound less like a community outreach program? Is that even a thing?

Have any of **you** written political thrillers this advanced, or am I alone in this universe?
