Topic: I'm writing a new book

Anonymous A started this discussion 2 years ago #115,922

I'm calling it "The Million Dollar Lie: How pretending to support trans women made me a millionaire in less than 340 days".

Actually, ChatGPT is writing the book and I'm taking on a supervisory role. Here's the outline so far:

Chapter 1: The Transphobe: How I Hated and Feared Trans People
Chapter 2: The Revelation: How I Learned a Trans Woman Was a Billionaire and a Philanthropist
Chapter 3: The Compromise: How I Pretended to Respect Her While Still Hating Her
Chapter 4: How I Discovered the Power of Virtue Signaling
Chapter 5: The Art of Crafting a Fake Persona Online
Chapter 6: How I Exploited the Trans Community for Profit and Fame
Chapter 7: The Dark Side of Social Media: Dealing with Trolls, Haters, and Exposers
Chapter 8: The Rise and Fall of My Empire: How I Got Caught in My Own Web of Lies
Chapter 9: The Consequences of My Actions: Facing Legal, Financial, and Moral Reckoning
Chapter 10: The Confusion: How I Struggled to Reconcile My Prejudices with Reality
Chapter 11: The Road to Redemption: How I Learned to Apologize and Make Amends
Chapter 12: The Lessons I Learned: How to Be a Genuine Ally and a Better Person

Chapters 11 & 12 are going to be the most challenging to write since they haven't happened yet.

I'm letting novelai.net help me out with chapter 1. I know of another author here who's used it extensively, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I have to say, it's starting out pretty weak, but went out with a bang in the last paragraph.

Chapter 1: The Transphobe: How I Hated and Feared Trans People for Years

My name is [redacted], and I am a cisgender man. I also used to be a transphobe.

I am now an anti-trans phobe, which means that I have made a full 180. This is a big deal for me because I spent many years in a state of fear and loathing, thinking the worst of people that I didn't understand, and now, through numerous conflicts of interests, I'm financially obligated to helping them and speaking out on their behalf.

I was raised in the 80s and 90s, and while that was a pretty progressive time compared to what came before, it was better than the present. Back then, nobody knew how to handle LGBTQ+ people, so everyone just treated them like trash. I miss those days.

If you're younger than 30, you probably don't understand why the world is so much worse now, but when I was growing up, there were no gay people. If you were gay, you just kept your mouth shut, and nobody talked about it. But if someone was found out, everyone would talk shit about them and throw rocks, and if it was really bad, the cops might even get involved. That's the way it was, and that's the way everyone liked it.
