I’ve seen a lot of conversations about AI and writing lately.
So here’s where I actually stand.

I don’t use AI to write my stories.

The characters, the choices, the worlds… those come from the same place they always have. From questions I can’t stop asking. From the weight of things that matter, and the wonder of a cosmos strange enough to hold them.

For me, AI is not a replacement for writing… it’s a tool that helps me stay consistent, catch what my brain skips over, and keep track of a world that’s grown far bigger than a single notebook can hold.

And look… I’ve built an entire parallel universe. That’s genuinely hard to keep straight.

So, I use it like a kind of memory. A second set of eyes. Something that helps me refine what’s already there.

What I don’t use it for is the part that makes it worth writing in the first place.
The same way a long walk works, or a notebook at 3am, it helps me go deeper into the story… not around it.

A tool doesn’t make you the author any more than a pen does. The pen doesn’t know what it’s writing. It doesn’t know why.

Storytelling is human because it carries something no instrument generates on its own… the specific weight of a specific life, pressed into language, handed to a stranger who somehow recognizes it… feels it.

I’m still the one playing the instrument.
