Today, I'm going to talk about my article creation process.
A few words.
I write articles very casually.
Because I don't have too many rules, I can write one article a day.
If I have too high requirements for myself, how many words to write, what level of writing to write, and too many expectations, then I probably won't be able to keep writing for so long.
What I'm going to write, how I'm going to write, how much I'm going to write, I don't plan ahead.
Every day when that time comes, I pick up my phone, type a few random words, have a beginning, and then I can write it down.
I'm not the kind of person who can't write a thousand words.
Usually, I write whatever comes to my mind.
Maybe sometimes, I only wrote two or three hundred words, and I didn't know what to write.
Then I'll stop and do something else.
When you have time, or something suddenly comes to mind, write a few sentences right away.
Every article you read about me is not done in one go.
It's all written and stopped, revised and modified, and that's how it came about.
Maybe I started writing at seven or eight in the morning, but in the evening, I hadn't finalized the manuscript yet, and I was still there to revise it.
Although the first draft of many articles, only five or six hundred words, was completed in the morning.
But after all, it was the first draft, and I wrote it wherever I thought of it, and it was written in a mess, with no logic at all, the context was not right, and there were a lot of typos.
After all, I typed it out word by word on my phone.
Sometimes, the words are typed wrong, but I don't pay attention.
I didn't find out until I went back and wanted to revise it.
So, you know now that my article is not so much written as it is revised.
The final draft and the first draft are often very different and a bit unrecognizable.
Maybe the first draft is five or six hundred words, and it only takes more than 10 minutes or 20 minutes before and after.
But the time for the subsequent modifications may add up to two or three hours.
Even if it is an extra two or three hours, my total word count will generally not exceed 2,000 words, which is only about 1,000 words.
You can see my attitude towards writing.
Although the topic of the writing was uncertain, I was very casual at first, but then I spent a lot of time revising it.
So my writing speed is very slow.
But one thing I can guarantee is that my articles are typed out word by word with my fingers on my mobile phone, and when I write them, they are completely closed-book exams, I don't go through the materials, let alone copy and paste, and I can remember as many things as I can in my head, and write as many things as I think.
Now that AI is not very advanced, many people have begun to use this technology to write.
I'm not against writing with AI.
In fact, I also have AI.
Like document writing, planning plans, and advertising, it is indeed possible to use AI to improve efficiency.
It's just that I said before, this number, I mainly use it to write a personal diary, write about what I do, and write about my thoughts.
Isn't that a joke that you asked AI to write my diary?
How does AI know what I did today and what do I think?
But you say, it's okay to use AI to polish my article, or provide some writing material.
Sometimes, I do use AI to help me revise my article.
But after it was revised, the style of the article changed a little, and I felt a little awkward, and I had to revise it again to conform to my usual style.
Even those who regularly use AI to assist their writing are good at writing.
They can identify the good and bad things in the articles written by the AI and how they can modify them.
People who can write and AI are like a tiger with wings.
But for someone like me who is not good enough at writing, he still has to hone it on his own.
If you can write it yourself, try to write it yourself.
If you really can't, turn to AI again.
I guess my attitude towards AI is okay.
