I'm that kind of Romance writer where I write books ahead of time, like 5 or 10, and then go about releasing them. My media interviews will go like this.
Book media: You're so productive! What's your secret? You release like 20 books in the same year!
Me: Write the books over five years ago!
Yes, I am *that* slow of a writer.
Ugh! I can't write the Grumpy archetype. They always end up sounding super scary but are marshmallows on the inside. Note to #RomanceLandia don't read me if you like a genuine grumpy character. I turn them into people where their barks are far worse than their bites. #Romance #AmWriting
I do have to thank #AI for one thing. Some bit of writing that is just obviously fun or a torrent of vast emotions? Something that was clearly written because the author really enjoyed it? I’m loving that kind of beautiful art even if it has plot holes. I read a #Romance book recently where it was a joy to feel where the author was going, even if they swerved the Grumpy character archetype a little. I just really enjoyed reading this thing that I know the author had a really good time creating. The #AIHype helped me appreciate fun more among all the generated text that is generated to just put content out there. The Cupid Chronicles

I have a lot of thoughts about that Daniel Green video where he covers that absolutely shit article by the New York Times about the Romance author turned prompter. His comment section is full of the anti-romance slop I see on a daily basis, but even he, in the video, fell into the trap that Romance is just bland formulaic porn, which, yawn, but the most interesting thing to me about this whole thing is the author just giving up. Quite literally. She just chose to quit playing the game, quit trying to improve, she just chose to quit writing altogether because the industry could not support her at all so now she generates everything. I honestly can’t express how sad that is. I can’t even put into words house sad that is. There is a much larger story here than her just using an LLM, except of course, the New York Times has terrible reporters that don’t know how to ask complex questions so the article reads like a vapid snooze fest. The whole thing just makes me profoundly sad! And I hate this whole thing is just another excuse to shit on romance reader some more. This prompter even said, I don’t need to worry, because in a few years, readers won’t care about what they are reading. I can’t express how profoundly sad this whole thing makes me. It reminds me of that Buttondown article that I can’t locate at the moment, it said something to the effect of, caring about anything today is a radical act. #Romance #AI #LLM #Author #RomanceLandia
Well damnit. I hate it when better authors have similar ideas! I completed a fluffy ROM COM where there's an apartment complex that's a magical matchmaker, Grumpy VS Sunshine Trope, Disability smut/sex, and of course, cookies and newspapers in Braille that tell the gay guys what to do and I found this, which is similar, but far more funny https://www.hoopladigital.com/audiobook/the-cupid-chronicles-courtney-walsh/19245957 #Romance #RomanceLandia
