Human Authorship Notice

Human Authorship Notice

Human Authorship Notice (AI POLICY)

Human Authorship 

  • Every scene and final line in my books are written by me. I do not use AI to draft my story texts.

My Method (Structure-First)

  • I begin with intuition and research, then build premise, theme, and a full structural blueprint. I do all story-structure design without AI assistance.

 

No-AI Drafting Rule 

  • When drafting, I write scenes myself—without AI-generated prose.

What I Use AI For (Assistive Only)

  • Research support (history, culture, geography, science, terminology)
  • Proofing/cleanup(typos, grammar, consistency, formatting checks)
  • Clarity and logic checks (questions, plausibility, continuity)
  • Line-level alternatives only on passages I have already written (I choose and revise the final phrasing)

What I Do Not Use AI For

  • Generating chapters, scenes, dialogue, narration, or first drafts
  • Replacing my voice or decision-making as the author
  • Copying or imitating any specific living author’s style

 

AI Outside the Manuscript
I may use AI for business research/marketing, separate from the creative writing of the book. If AI-assisted image generation is used for cover elements, final composition, typography, and finishing are done by me.

My Promise to Readers:
The story you’re reading is human-made—designed, written, and revised by me. AI tools are used only for research and limited editorial support on text I’ve written—never to generate the story itself.
