I've included an article that discusses some of the ethical concerns. On a more pragmatic note, however: You won't get support from the creative community here In addition, Literary Agencies are banning AI in submissions. If you use AI art, why wouldn't they assume that your writing is AI too?

Many writers obsess over daily word count. But who cares if someone writes 30k or even 100k words in a day if it’s rushed, sloppy, templated, or barely readable? Pages that need massive revision aren’t a flex. I’ll take a clean sentence over unreadable drafts. Quality matters. #AuthorSky #BookSky

Good morning! You are enough, right now. Always. Have a good day. #writingcommunity #skywrite #goodmorning #positivity #affirmation ☀️

Unsolicited writing advice: no. 8075: There is no such thing as serious writing. There are only writers who take their work seriously, and those who don’t. Tragedy is no more “serious” than comedy. Children’s writing is no less “serious” than writing for adults. Good writing is wherever you find it.

Anyone have a calender for pitch events in 2026? #writing #writingcommunity #amquerying #writers
