Does reality TV IF count as slice of life? I thought slice of life was more everyday ****, not reality TV. But I'm bad with genres so

Listen, it's certainly more slice-of-life than idk arthurian IFs, superhero IFs and supernatural IFs
But yeah, slice-of-life probably was not the most accurate characteristic. I should've called it more grounded or realistic, I guess.I mean, yes to kind of uncanny and definitely not as good as she probably thinks it is, but she did say she's spent two years figuring out how to write the way she wants to write which is why she took such a long break so of course it would be different. Like if it was only six months, sure, but two years seems pretty reasonable to have a turn around. And the new ones, the characters to actually seem mostly distinct compared to the original wherw you could just transplant any of them in and it would sound the same.
It's overwritten, she still doesn't know how to use em dashes properly, it's not great, but idk about it being ai. It's possible, but like someone said on the last page, we really can't be certain.
We'll see how this edit she's apparently doing comes out, and I'll probably report back if I'm the only one playing because I gotta know if quality changes or what

Oh no, the sentence in bold should have a colon and not a dash...
I thought it should be a semi-colon but I never worked out actual colons if I'm being honest, and I've been told these types of rules are technically flexible (em-dashes vs colons vs semi-colons) .Oh no, the sentence in bold should have a colon and not a dash...
Honestly did not realize it’s been two years since the old one. True, that is a lot of time to change your style. There’s so much fluff, it’s weighted down and hard to get to the characters for me, I’ll take your word for it because I agree with there being no distinction. Happens a lot in IF when you have too many characters unfortunately. I just hope when she edits, she cuts the fat.
The last release was summer 2024 so yeah, it's coming up on two years.
If she wants it to be that long, fine, but it needs to be earned. Do something with the words or cut them out. Too much time doing nothing, you know? I'm happy to read long chapters, especially with this many characters, but make it worth it.
I had a feeling it was just because she was forgetting and or making grammatical mistakes. I have trouble focusing and often repeat sentences or leave out information. I don't mean to. That's why I really liked the one comment that actually brought up neurodivergent people in this conversation. And from what I've seen of AI, mostly from videos where someone left a prompt in their book, em dashes were never used as frequently as they were in summer of love. The first page alone had more 3 or more.
Honestly, at this point if I was writing a if or anything else I'd be have tempted to leave my spelling **** ups in hopes that maybe that would stop me from getting accused of using ai. Like I get it I want ai to **** off too but people are accusing people of using ai now for having comments on youtube longer than two sentences.
Me too lol. I've seen people accused of using AI just because their thoughts are concise or their art is really beautiful and most of these accusations come from people who aren't writers or artists.
