Harry Potter and the Large Language Model. How can I stop AI copying my manuscript? How can I stop AI copying my manuscript? Here are some tips to help make your book more difficult for generative A.I. to Potterize!

I've written a piece giving tips about how you can go about preventing generative a.i. bots from using *your* script as a source text (by comparing your work with Harry Potter books) 📚 #writingcommunity

The difference between us and them is that they're doing it for money 💰 and we're doing it for love ❤️ We're doing this for the love of creative endeavour, love of literature, and the love of our contented audience ✍️ please share this love and keep writing 🙏 #writingcommunity

It feels exciting to be writing and to be editing and to be researching my book... and that's the essence of it, really... isn't it? The essence of artistic creation is preparing to bring something of joy into the world and becoming excited about the prospect of its delivery 💪👌✍️ #authoring

Admirable 👍

Wishing you lots of success 🙏

Publishing your creative writing is like jumping from a cliff edge with rickety angel wings stuck to your back... held unsteadily in place by glue and string...and wondering what the impact will *feel like* when you inevitably hit rock bottom 😬✍️ #authoring

Writing's a journey across broken bones, aching hearts, sleepless nights, and shattered dreams... it's a journey that takes effort, takes stamina, takes durability, and most of all...it takes endurance 💪 if you can't handle the creative effort, you're not a writer - - - you're a thief ✍️

Authors keep *themselves* safe by placing their characters in situations of desperate danger ⚡

Thinking, creating, and self-criticism are vital human processes 🙏 don't give up the right to be human 🙏 don't sell human selfhood to billionaire tech-bros and hideous machines ⚙️⚙️⚙️

And to you 🍯

Great tip 👍

Yes, such clean lines 👍

Winnie the Pooh's little house with his 'hunny' stash in a twisted tree root at Ashdown Forest East Sussex

18 Jan is National Winnie the Pooh Day in the UK - a day that celebrates the beloved Pooh stories, written by A. A. Milne. Here's me with my younger daughter and Mrs.M. at the wonderful Ashdown Forest in the High Weald of East Sussex... the magical setting for those Winnie the Pooh adventures🍯

Thanks for sharing 🙏 made me smile 😊

What a happy photo 👍

Magical ✨

Please, never be shy telling an author you loved their books.

It’s seriously what gets us through.

Great tip 👍

I had a blast chatting with Christian Hurst about creating fictional worlds, the complexities of writing space opera 🚀 and discovering courage 💪 if you'd like to chat with me, author-to-author, on my Myth & Magic podcast about *your* fantasy project 😉 simply DM me and we can set something up ✍️

Interesting thought 👍

1926 street scene with car and cinema hoarding

I've been working on a project, focussing on society 100 years ago. I couldn't help but notice how many similarities there are between 1926 - 2026 😐 Haven't we learned a thing? Is humankind condemned to walk an eternal hamster wheel... forever going nowhere... learning *nothing* from history?

It might be raining on the streets... but it isn't raining in my heart... or on the sheets of my freshly conceived manuscript... so there's that 👍

Very kind 🙏
