Thrilled that I was able to attend Part 4 of Denis Hirson's inspirational online talks (arranged by Jacana Media) about writing a memoir.
What stood out for me, particularly - and all of it was amazing - was the injunction to listen to yourself and to write from the heart, because nobody else in the world has your voice. To my mind, this is sound advice for all creative writing.
But what about AI?
Will it learn and mimic all our voices?
It is already churning out books in different genres.
We don't know the future effects of AI on creative writing, but for now, I will hold fast to the belief that tapping into our essence, writing from the heart and the gut, is what makes our voice real and unique. It will be my guiding light as I get back into the stream of new writing.
