From Patricia Benesh, Ed.D
It’s never too late to believe in yourself and become an enlightened wordsmith.
In my 25 years coaching writers, I’ve seen astounding changes in the publishing world: self publishing ease and marketing via social media. And now we have AI, artificial intelligence via platforms like ChatGPT. While others are horrified by the potential plagiarism, copyright infringement, and proliferation of bias and fake news, I’m excited for the potential regarding creative writers. Like any research tool, you will use AI responsibly and ethically.
AI for Creative Writers: Brainstorming with the Bot covers the safe and ethical use of AI. Beyond that, is the incredible use of AI, as you learn how to structure your queries, your prompts. Like other computer programs, AI is susceptible to “garbage in, garbage out.” So learning how to create artful prompts based on your creative writing material is key to your success.
The workbook provides a framework for brainstorming with the bot based on the building blocks of your creative writing material: genre, setting, plot, character, style, and pace. See numerous examples based on classic novels in the public domain. Learn how to create prompts unique to your material. Your overall skill level will improve as you collaborate with the bot. The power is in your prompt.
