Unlike previous attempts at writing a novel, I’m being very methodical and careful as I wrap up this particular draft of the novel I’m working on. In the past, I have had a tendency to race through the last few scenes.
Ugh.
But now I’m being really careful. I’m writing each scene as I approach the end of the novel carefully, even though I know I will have to potentially rewrite the scenes.
That gets to the core of things — when I do “color correction” in the next draft, I’m really worried about how much rewriting I’m going to have to do. I think I may, in some instances, be forced to rewrite things simply because I don’t want people to think I’ve produced AI slop.
It’s taken me a while to figure out how to integrate AI into my workflow. Now that I understand how exactly to do it, I can do it without any AI slop slipping in. Everything is my own writing in my own voice.
Anyway, it’s going to be a struggle.
