@danas__day: Authors ✍🏻 biggest mistakes I see you making in the manuscripts I’ve edited recently #bookeditor #BookTok #authortips #novelwriting #writersoftiktok
That’s why I switched to scrivener. I was tired of Google Docs trying to change my writing.

I love how people think tools and AI aren't almost the same things these days.

Grammarly is strictly there for me to fix any punctuation I messed up. Those blue underlinings are NEVER good lmao

I ignore most of the changes any editing tool suggests unless it is related to spelling, SOME comma placement issues depending, or really really awkward sentences. I loath tools trying to make it simply sound “normal” which is really just like everyone else!

I only use grammar as a spell checker, if it recommends one of those MASSIVE blocks of change, if I could throw a chair at its head I would

Megan | Writer 💌 :
A programme I used to use was Hemingway editor but now it used AI 💔 It was great. It would highlight issues like passive voice and it would be the job of the author to change it. Now it rewrite your work using AI and it breaks my heart. Honestly, it used to make me a better writer, now I can’t use it.

What if you combine a dialogue tag with an action? Would it still be in the sentence? E.g. “end quote,” she said, turning her head.

I always try to show, not tell, but then phrases are overdone. Do you have tips on how to not repeat yourself in your writing?

Meena | Writer, Book Editor🌿 :
When I was writing my theses, Grammarly was an amazing tool to check grammar and punctuation. But now it also has generative AI 🥲 I'm glad I graduated before gen AI became a thing, so my writing was my own. I don't use Grammarly anymore

I used to write on Zoho and it’s the same. I stopped using cause it is soooo annoying, their AI is constantly suggesting to shorten sentences for clarity, changing x, y and z to make it more efficient when it was good in the first place

My biggest fear is getting accused of using ai in my writing, English is not my native language but I decided to write in it and with how many people use ai to write scripts for their posts/videos these days I’m terrified of it leaking into my writing since its so easy to get influenced by the language that surrounds you…..

Which tools do you suggest I use instead of Grammarly for my writing? I like Grammarly cuz I don’t have to worry about making typos and errors but I do agree their suggestions are a little… lifeless. Sometimes I ignore but they really have me second guessing and then i eventually change my writing for them

I plan on hiring an editor and I don't really want to use an AI grammar check beforehand because I write literary fiction and it's always trying to chop up my sentences and make me question myself. I think I'm fine when it comes to speech tags and normal sorts of punctuation, but I'm not great with semi colons & em dashes. I question some of my commas. I worry that an editor will be annoyed if I don't run it through a grammar check beforehand, like is there ever a time that you think to yourself, "this is too much." Lol. Like how polished do I need to have this thing before hiring an editor

Max Peterson | Fantasy Author :
I use prowriting aide. it does similar to Grammarly. I rarely accept the style suggestions unless it's simple stuff such as using Despite instead of in spite of. most suggestions from the AI are so much worse.

this was so interesting! I love that you're still working as an editor--my company laid me off in favor of AI 😭
