After a long couple of weeks watching the #pbparty showcase, I didn’t write or revise one single word!! Had to jump on the tractor this morning to decompress!!
Hooray, another new kidlit publisher accepting manuscripts directly, without an agent! Check out the revised list that includes over 80 others: BitsyKemper.com/publishers #amwriting #kidlit #WritingCommunity
WHY was she running her story through AI? What it spewed out was generic+ bland+ added nothing. We want your voice, your writing. Not some nondescript picture book text that AI has helped with. Stay away from it in your creative writing at all costs. It is not going to help you!
Gang, I gasped. She put an AI sentence into her ms? First of all, we wouldn't be able to consider that ms. at @HolidayHouseBks, and if she got a contract with us, or with many publishers, she'd sign in her contract that AI did not create any part of the work. But also, [2/3]
