Grammarly is pointless.

Also theatre, movies, TV use "out loud" dialogue. Good writing uses a different style of dialogue as well as narration etc.

Poetry usually needs read out loud. Not Novels or textbooks.

Gilgamesh
Homer
A true History (2000 yo SF)
Rider Haggard
Jane Austin
Dickens
All those depressed Russian guys,
Diana Wynne Jones
Terry Pratchett.

Never heard of Stephen Marche. Is he trying to trick the competition into producing junk?
Has he read many books in diverse genres?

Grammarly works ok. I like reading outloud but still always looking for a better application.

It's a rubbish editor too.

Any good bits will be stolen. It only chops up and regurgitates. It's not remotely like a human being inspired by books they've read.

Sure AI is a good editor, but not to write the whole book. One half of it will not make senses and those dashes. I so want to correct all the dashes. That is me, I like to do things still old school.

So much so it's unlikely the anime will ever get a second season. Why do some people get used to those stealing machines?

Occasionally publishing worthwhile things does not prevent the "they suck" tagging.

Welp, whatever a Stephen Marche is, I wouldn't trust to tell me I'm not on-fire.
