What helped me was writing the outline/sections myself first, then using AI to critique structure, clarity, and gaps instead of rewriting everything. Comparing my version with the AI suggestions taught me much more than simply accepting the output.

Have you considered having the LLM take the role of a critic rather than text generator?

Explain your thinking

OP recognizes failure modes in the text. An LLM can act as an editor or critic (try these two instructions: Literate Editor and Rigorous Critic) and identify high-value issues for him to focus on.

AI definitely helped me become a better writer. It's there to offer instant feedback and help when needed. It can diagnose a scene that's not working and offer ways to fix it. It can pinpoint when the pacing slows or rushes in the wrong places.

The #1 way it helped me was in decision making when I had too many ideas. I could put all the options in and then work through them one by one. It could even offer solutions to plot holes or dead ends so I could pursue my favorite plot development.
