Can anyone help? I want to write some dialogue that the protagonist overhears being played from a recording. What would be the best way to write this dialogue that is not from any active participant in the scene? (E.L. Lyons, VeiledDark Author ✝️ ??) Thanks in advance!

If you use AI generated content in your final work, fine, but declare it. Could you imagine sitting there, smiling and nodding while someone praises your work while knowing you hid the fact it was part made by machine? Planning etc. not so much? Writing though... Shux

So I ran into a writing wall. It took over a week of casual thinking of where to take the next piece of dialogue. I overcame this with a 500 word exchange about the archetypes of dogs. The lesson? Just wait... Do your WIP justice by not forcing words out.

So ... I made my first 'viral' video on Tiktok last night. Was it to do with my writing? No. My building? No. It was about my neighbour blocking my drive - a cardinal sin in UK.

Forget writing, let's hope Ai never gets into nuclear missile launch systems. It could even foment circumstances that make loading up more likely... Then.... Whoops.

Another chapter down. Actually scared the world's going to have moved on past humans before I finish my book! So, started messaging comic publishers. Maybe they'll be more receptive to WIPs?

Am I wrong or is much creative content just getting lame? Or am I just getting tired of the same stuff I would have liked 10 years ago... I don't know which is a better outcome

Yay. Finished 'part one' of my WIP. (Three more left?) Happy with that. A package. A little bundle of cohesive story that is contained and complete in and of itself. Now we can get the beef in that stew... Or... Tofu... Depending on how you roll. #WritingCommunity

I wish my ego didn't mind that fellow writers don't follow back. The grown up, quiet part of me says 'it's ok, they're all interesting and worthy of a follow.' The real me says: 'like hell will I be a digit in the sea of your value metric.'
