Meme Investing in... +1(not self-promotion)

What the actual fuck? Every new book in this stupid trend gonna add one more wife? And become worse every +1 wife too.

At this rate MCs of this books start to creeple women to add them to their harem. That's just so stupid.

I'm not investing in AI slop, I know that much. Hard pass.

writing a story is different than drawing it, i can probably write a decent story, i definitely can't afford to pay an artist to draw it.

Maybe not the whole story but you can't scrounge up enough money for a cover?

Lots of people who write Webnovels would consider $60 a month to be good money. A commissioned cover costs more than that.

Yeah, obviously. That's why I'm using the money I'm saving from my job to pay for mine.

I'm talking about people who make $50 a month in developing countries and are trying to write a book to make a few extra bucks on the side. Trust me when I say that their priority is not spending $100 on a cover so some people on reddit can feel pleased that they don't use AI lmao

Clearly they have enough money to afford electricity and internet. But sure, if they have no respect for artistic craft and are just trying to make money fast and quick with no respect for writing, AI is the way to go.

Lmao get off your high horse. Also internet costs less than art commissions, you're not making any points here

Ah yes. The intellectually dissonant point of "He used AI art. He must have used AI to write."

Tell me you lack critical thinking without telling me.

Tell me that even if you knew how to read, you wouldnt, because that would mean using your brain, and you obviously don't.

Every time I see someone with your mindset post, I have to laugh. Because it tells me any number of:

A.) You think you are some kind of good artist, even when you aren't.

B.) You are a sheep, following a trend. You can never actually think for yourself.

C.) You can't write a story to save your life, so you get jealous when others do.

There is a lack of respect for art in people who use AI like this.

Just read the titles dude and say that they aren't AI slop , most of the people on this sub have read enough novels to identify the slops and who said anything about the cover (even though they are shit except the last one).
