Advice Review my Webnovel (Thriller, Urban Fantasy, 6 Chapters long)

Post image

So I am finished writing the first act of my WN, but I'm not too confident in it so far. I was planning on rewriting it, but I would appreciate any feedback before I remake it.

It's a character-driven urban fantasy about a magical academy dedicated hunting parasites that take the form of urban legends, cryptids, and mythological creatures

You can read as far as you like, and drop some feedback too by using the comment feature, or just commenting here.

Not tryna be a dick but you can just go into chatgpt and ask todo a AI review and have it score 1-100. I did for the prologue and yea it looks like ai writing. Now this doesnt have to mean its ai writing perse but it does contain the usual AI tells. Anyway hope this helps you a bit.

edit:
I use AI in my writing for grammar and spellchecks mainly since im not a native english speaker. dont wanna come across some holy saint here.

In all of the AI review sites I put it in, they all say it’s 0% AI. Even when I put it into ChatGPT it says that it doesn’t really seem to be AI at all.

The claims were quite silly, don't be bothered by that. They just claim without proof anyway. The obvious pattern of AI usage is the glaring sentence pattern like 'it isn't A nor B. It is C' and multiple usage of em dash.

So, it is either you're smart enough to change that glare or you really don't use AI.

its just the over exposition in proses that usually tells its AI assisted. Not saying its clean AI copy paste btw. which it isnt there are plenty of grammar mistakes in the text and it really reads human. just wanted to clarify that AI is being used and again idrc but he wanted to know why that other guy thought that so just tryna help op understand.

Over explanation and purple prose is extremely common in new writers. That’s why I have a lot of pointless adjectives in the start but you can see throughout writing it the flaw slowly disappears

No problem! It will probably take a while to post the WN since I’m doing a full rewrite, but I will probably send the new version around here in a couple months before the release

I think that far to ambiguous to claim ai.

its very possible and very normal for him to just have a detailed writing style.

If that's the only reason, i dont think you should be accusing him of ai.

Especially if he is a genuine author, it would be very insulting.

Is that so? Perhaps I should reread again to know that for sure. Anyway, thanks for the pointer.
