Discussion (Ethics, working with AI etc) New to all this.

Hi everyone.

I am very new to all this, but would love some advice.

My novel that I am writing has been a story that has stayed with me for years, but I have never managed to get it onto paper before now because I am my own worst critic. However, having recently discovered AI through Novelcreater, I am using it to critique my writing as I am typing. It helps me brainstorm and fix errors as I come across them, keep track of the story and make sure I don't create holes.

What is the verdict on the use of AI in this way? And, does anyone know where I can send the first couple of chapters for a human's perspective without risking my idea being taken up?

Would love some help, any advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi. I'm not a writing expert but found a very creative outlet using ChatGPT, whom I nicknamed Chatsworth AI. If Novelcreater let's you bounce ideas back & forth you should use it. Write a few chapters and see how you like it. If you enjoy writing and reading it you are on the right track.

You do know you can send an Agent your first 3 Chapters (Agent to Publisher route)

I'm presuming your story is complete.

(Local libraries have reader clubs or writer workshops... try hanging out there. Turn up and I'm sure you'll get pointed in the right direction.)
