Hoping to draft a 5K word article (some chunks of this are already around it messily) and the stem of a book chapter!
What about you?

Definitely doing. Let’s do it! My aim is to try to write 30-60 minutes at least 5 days out of 7

Isn’t it a hypocorism? As in the word is clipped and then an ending is added, like ‘Aussie’?

Not to mention the damage it does To Its Own Users!!!

At best, it cultivates dependence and atrophies the mind, at worst it’s literally pushing people into mental health crises.

If it was a substance, it would have already been regulated to hell and back, if not outright banned.

I am interested in what others say, so posting here. I think this sounds interesting but i assume this would mean that only institutions that can afford Turnitin can work with this. An OS alternative wd be welcome

I can’t do outlines in a methodical manner either. I can do section titles and then I have to write a mishmash of narrative+bullet points.
Works for me though 🤷🏽‍♀️
