Get up son, Ana just dropped!!!!

[@G4bri3lDaSl4yerxd91]

i thought about writing about my upcoming novel but then I saw this video show up in my notifications xd

[@Lwldm]

Hey, your book sounds like a really good book. It reminds me of the series „Alchemy of Souls"

[@rhogam100]

love ur vids ana ❤❤

[@okamisan7602]

I'm currently thinking about writing a story which is sort of a combination of a retelling of red riding and hood and sleeping beauty but instead it has a cursed prince who ends up in a form of a white wolf spiritually of course and red comes from a long line of hunters.

[@secretbookworm]

As an artist, I just wanted to say… please don’t use a.i. Pictures even as references… I’m sure you can find photos or actual art that fits your vision if you can’t commission an artist. A.I. Hurts artists so much and art and writing go hand in hand, so I’m sure you can sympathise with that. I can understand if it is hard to distinguish it but please always check. Even as references you’re just getting yourself used to A.I. Which in the long run will likely make you undervalue true art. I hope you understand. Besides that, I love the video:)

[@cobralily]

OMgoodness this came at the perfect time!! i have an idea but i'm having trouble turning it into a story plot - and all in time for the NanoWrimo writing challenge next month 😅

[@dukeofdenver]

Content queen❤

[@ananeu]

hehe thank uuu🤍🤍

[@NiyaMansoor-q8d]

Omg ❤❤❤❤ I have been having a book idea for 10 months straight (almost) and keep on writing it then deleting it afterwards when i am not satisfied!

[@Dvrkling]

Is it different than google docs how they use your work for ai?

[@NightWink129]

I'm just learning this. I'd better get my old stuff off of there. Haven't even used it in years.

[@supasesspaitool585]

Nice! this came out when I just about needed it! But this video didn't find me well, tho, I'm quite sick.

[@alyssabryant804]

hey! Im commenting this again cuz i really want to know. whats the difference between starter, pro, and elite of talers? Also is it worth getting the early access? Like whats there now and whats still to come?

[@ananeu]

hi! u can check out the features available for each Talers 2 plan by going to the link in the description. since Talers 2 is now live, you can pick any one of these plans (but starter is just Talers 1 - free). you can join the wait list for more updates or information about bugs or nanowrimo for example!🤍 hope this helps

[@Demeter_Cabin4]

Do you know any writing apps that are fully for free? I’ve been writing in my notes app for quite awhile

[@chipmic9647]

I personally use Reedsy

[@VlogsWithDede-cr7om]

Hey Ana I really appreciate this and it’s really helpful but um how can I not like my book a snooze fest and make it entertaining.

[@MiaJauntae-uk5su]

Do you have a template for this??

[@ReiiKami]

Tbh, I can't use talers as much i can because i ran out of the limited free version. and I can't pay for the pro plan because of the different currency

[@RetalDawood-c8s]

Hey Ana, I’m 13.I’ve been watching you for a while now. I do have an idea for my book but I can’t really figure out the genres ,and whenever I start brainstorming I get overwhelmed and I can’t really seem to start, it would be really helpful if anyone could share some advice.

[@ananeu]

It’s totally normal to feel overwhelmed! Take your time and don’t be afraid to try out different genres!

[@RetalDawood-c8s]

@ okay thank you so much 💗💗

[@Andywritzlol]

That one sentence summary was two sentence tho 😭😭😭

[@Jaxondrawsalot]

heyyyyy

[@HeartseekerJinx]

Girl not all the AI. Give it a rest.

[@krenko-]

ik, I was really disappointed to hear her rep the ai feature :( like people shouldn't be using that, especially baby writers. how are they going to learn how to develop their sentences or discover their own voice if some algorithms doing all the work for them?

[@HeartseekerJinx]

@@krenko-exactly! You’re just feeding the AI/LLMs your writing by using these features too so they can keep training the models.

[@krenko-]

@@HeartseekerJinx yeah, so not only are you probably losing your voice bc you're relying on ai to write for you, that same ai is taking your voice and dispersing it through who knows how many other writer's works. it makes everything so inauthentic. if someone's a young writer just starting out, using ai is going to cheat them out of growing. it's sad. and that's not even going into art theft.

[@HeartseekerJinx]

@@krenko- yup. It’s super sad to see Ana take all these sponsorships since her viewerbase is clearly mostly young aspirational writers :(

[@krenko-]

@@HeartseekerJinx I agree :( I was a big fan a few months ago, and I still am, but this turn towards boosting ai has been really disappointing, especially with what's been going on with nano and stuff. I'm hopeful her written works won't include any ai. I think I remember reading/hearing somewhere that publishers are beginning to be really touchy with that stuff

[@WildFn9]

Hi

[@lirio2415]

" I hope they're still alive " well .....

[@ananeu]

hahahah

[@MasonGil-p1h]

By the way, if you’re writing ī story in the real world (not something like fantasy) there is no plot, since most of our lives are plotless. Hop this helps!

[@Starcino]

Every story has a plot?

[@MasonGil-p1h]

@@Starcino yes, except stories et in the modern day, or real world. Again, like fantasy or sometimes any other genre, there is no plot
