before it was pulled, I tried three seperate short stories, all three extremely different genres, and for the first attempt for all three fable used one sentence paragraphs in a massive list.
wowza
'Claude Fable 5 is currently unavailable.'
from my short expereince with it on fiction, saw no real improvement from 4.8-
i was actually dissapointed with the draft it produced of 888 to which in break from ROT i thought would be a fun dip
to which for a short story i decided it would serve the story to have condesce the instances of the skit invasion from 3 to 2 with the idea of 1-thinking he's tanking the gank and wont be interruptedi n 2, this puts it all into one day and not two - introducing the AI angel sooner
the way it connected them was copy/paste not transforming the concept. Which is a judgement of how fast can I oput handwritten fully comparison to read and tweaked. I was going to play with it on a brand new short story but gasperino
Starting to generate short skit ideas because of Baker bahaha I really like their channel name that tags along the thought when I have one: that’s a bad idea hahaha
Guy walking down the street, another stops him. “Give me your wallet.”
“I don’t have a wallet.”
“What do you have?”
“Friendship.”
Cut scene to teaching the robber magic the gathering

Epilogue
“And I tap this and you lose, again.”
“Fuck them cards.” Bang, bang, bang
this choice in draft-2 of ROT: TOmmy Hendricks streamlines the story so much haha all for the. best, Turtle scene cut - if you know, you know; if not too late it's gone. As well as I shifted the timeline, so then this next acrade scene is gone entrely in favor of the sting now. I still have the Willowbrook tour, and build up; but in draft-1 it rambled, stretched out. A lot of this was to age him up. where i think this second go has found it's balance.
75/110k-words into the edits of ROT: Tommy Hendricks, and this Birthday for Tommy is one to remember. It required several additional elements of depth that I didn't fully construct at the time of the first draft. I think overall, I set myself up for success in this second draft of the story having not fully known these character threads that I can further tighten. Another metaphor for the wound knot a far it looks like one, and if you want to look closer there's a lot more held together. Agency in all characters a big theme. Just like Tommy himself was a side chracter in ROT:Parent night. Doing a good job would be the hopefullness of any charater getting their own time alottment in a book
96.4/110 draft-2 of ROT: Tommy Hendricks,
might be doing some serious operating. I hit a chapter that when doing the first draft I narrowed my favroite choices to 2. Went one way. Saw it again, kept the path this second time around, but nose kept twitching. Kept twitching, going path-2 streamlines/removes fluff that i felt like was dragging. In my mind, I had to seriously cut these next few beats. Which made me want to fully understand why i needed them and it ties back to the decision. If 2, I will no longer need a full 2-kword sceneand the surroudning beats with be tweaked but will remain. The challenge was Tommy's acceptance but i think all the information is there for Cassandra to use. hmmm.
