It will happen over time AricaN. I have so many projects in progress. I just started creating my first course on Udemy. Hoping to finish that within 2 weeks. 2 days ago, I translated a Public Domain content book from 1914 in French to English and published it as an ebook and book on KDP Amazon. My first ever translation with the help of ChatGPT.

By sharing all that, you have inspired me so. My biggest problem is I tend to take on too many projects and overstretch, so I'm keeping it simple. Just write :)

Simple is good AricaN. Because I want to build a Billion Dollar company I'm working at Warp Drive! Today, ChapGPT helped me write my first Code! A friend is helping to use it. haha

Very cool! I'm exploring chatgpt too, hope it helps me write faster. I have too many ideas in my head, too little time and slow typing speed. You have a big hairy goal, best of luck!

I use the Pro versions of Grok 2, ChatGPT and Claude.

I have used them to write ebooks for me. Claude sounds the most human like at least as of this writing.

Grok creates some amazing images.

Grok and ChatGPT provide a wealth of info for me.

Slow and steady works for sure. Staying consistent is the key.

Writing helps me process my emotions during difficult times. It isn’t always valuable to an audience. But I couldn’t survive without it. It isn’t even something worth sharing, but still necessary. We should be sharing our writing for purpose, something to help another. That might take a bit to find its usefulness. Like an artist finding a gallery. By obscuring the process with Popularity data, it could actually lose its place in history. IDK 🤷‍♀️ maybe 🤔

That's a very truthful and honest opinion and I love your authenticity. I told someone this week that unique art is an acquired taste, you've got to nurture your audience to love your art. Not everyone will love what you do, but there will be someone if you keep at it long enough and continue to improve your skills.
