In my post on my writing blog, liebjabberings, about a legitimate use of AI for writers, I discussed using the AI tools to do the repetitious, most boring writing job of summarizing REVIEWS left by lovely readers, in some form a potential new reader can absorb quickly (or decide to skip the book because of), a job which would take the writer a fair amou

Marguerite Mooers I looked at your website and saw all your wonderful positive reviews. Clearly, people love your book. I was frankly jealous. I would take the negative review with a grain of salt. With all those positive reviews people aren't going to pay a lot of attention The second thing is that maybe this is something to think about (whenever someone says something negative about my work, after the first initial hurt I have to say to myself, is there something I have to pay attention to.) I would have bought your book but I thought the Kindle price was a little bit high. thank you for liking my post.
