Thanks for the Mention! 'Top in Fiction' and 'The Booster Club' are fantastic projects I've been promoting a lot. They're really helping Fiction to thrive and become more visible on here, and are both wonderful places to showcase your own work and to explore the work of others... 😎
Sorry about that. I had asked you a couple times about your use of AI. I could see that the animated images were AI generated, which calls the text into question. AI is such a threat to writers, that I avoid promoting it and those who use it. Yes, go ahead and post to the book. Is there some way to not include those elephant images?
Also, if possible, another writer named The Common Centrist.
And I see your comment below--I actually didn't know using AI-generated images gave off the impression that I use AI LLMs to write. If you decide to look at my writing profile, please don't use that frame of reference due to my misunderstanding of the online world as it changes. I would never use AI LLMs as a tool to write only research, and even then, it is research to find a book, an author, the origin of a quote, etc. I appreciate what you do for other writers! It is very kind!
Your comment here has prompted me to change my list designation from dhw (definitely human written) to dhc (definitely human created), that is, no AI involvement (text, images, videos, and music). However, if people use AI to do research, well, all I can say is they are better off using Startpage. Lots of stories out lately of AI feeding some weird results back. As for using AI for image generation giving doubt to the text — most definitely! Best wishes on your writing.
You can say what you wish about content creation but AI LLMs have utility in research. You just have to be careful. Like any other type of research. There are parts of the internet you won't cite. As there are results of AI you won't use.
Sigh. I totally disagree. AI is too controllable by the programmers to give certain results, as has been shown in recent news stories. We must go by facts, not rationalization.
Small note, Throwback Thursday is the brainchild of and hosted by Redd Oscar of Redd Oscar Writes. Marco is a participant in it, but not the host.
Oops! Will correct this post. Thanks.
You're welcome! We've got so much going on in fictionstack at this point that it's super easy to get things mixed up.
Not sure where I saw Marco as the host, but no matter. Thanks for letting me know.
Thank you for the shoutout.
Thank you for the mention! And thanks for this great roundup. I’m looking forward to checking out some of these stacks.
Clamtown was fairly interesting.
Thank you!
I don’t use AI, either.
Thanks for letting me know. Have noted on my list!

Huzzah to the generous community and A.C. always!
Can I submit my serial novel again?

Yes, here's the post with all the collected chapters. I'll post it as plain text but I think the images may show up. Here goes...
