If anyone wants to know more about writing. **Third Person Limited**: A third person limited narrator has access to the thoughts and emotions of just one character. This narrator will follow a single character through the story and usually describe only events that the point of view character personally experiences. Usually, a third person limited narrator describes the emotions of the protagonist of a story but lets the audience infer how other characters are feeling from context. **Deep POV**: The deep third-person point of view takes the reader even deeper into a character’s inner world, allowing them to experience the story as if they are inside the character’s head and seeing the scene play out as the character does. The story is being told from so deeply within the experience of the POV character that the narrator doesn’t even seem to be present. The deep third-person POV is intimate, almost as much so as the first-person point of view, but remains in third-person, using pronouns such as “he”, “she”, or “they”. The narrator holds nothing back from the reader when exposing the character’s inner life. The reader sees and feels events just as the character does. **Interior Monologue**: In fictional literature, an interior monologue is a narrative technique that exhibits the thoughts, feelings, and associations passing through a character's mind. These ideas may be either loosely related impressions approaching free association or more rationally structured sequences of thought and emotion. **Positive Forms**: Instead, using the positive form is about saying what something is – not what something isn't. The word to look out for is not, as well as the contraction of it such as didn't or isn't. From Strunk & White’s Elements of Style: “Make definite assertions. Avoid tame, colorless, hesitating, noncommittal language. Use the word not as a means of denial or in antithesis, never as a means of evasion.” For example, instead of writing Hillary Clinton did not win the election, write Hillary Clinton lost the election. Instead of, He was not very often on time, write He usually came late. **Orthodox Spelling**: Orthodox spelling is how a word should be spelled or the way you will see the word in the dictionary. When writing any kind of essay or even when typing on social networks you should never use unorthodox spelling. **Indirect Characterization**: Indirect characterization is a type of literary device that reveals details about a character without stating them explicitly. Instead of describing a character in a straightforward way, the author shows their traits through that character's actions, speech, thoughts, appearance, and how other characters react to them. **Simplicity**: Involves choosing words and phrases that are simple and precise. It eschews jargon, overly complex language, and convoluted sentence structures, all of which can obfuscate meaning and impede understanding. Unless the text is intended to be a work of literature/art, most audiences just want the bottom line. Avoid using fancy language, at least without a purpose. **Patois**: the dialect of the common people of a region, differing in various respects from the standard language of the rest of the country. # - - - # ####Authors Name | Log | ------ | ------ | Harlan Ellison | https://files.catbox.moe/f6163i.png Cormac McCarthy | https://files.catbox.moe/oupyae.png Terry Pratchett | https://files.catbox.moe/ytj6wi.png Kurt Vonnegut | https://files.catbox.moe/j62ybv.png Arthur C.

Good if you want short response. - In CoT, add this under **Writing**, "[Lexical Density]: (Determine the best way to use average lexical density.)" or any variations of it depending if you want more content words or not. or - In Prefill, "Use average lexical density when writing." #Lexile Measure https://mvcc.libguides.com/kidlit/lexile https://lexile.com/educators/understanding-lexile-measures/about-lexile-measures-for-reading/ Lexile Measure mostly affects vocabulary and reading comprehension, this is mostly optional and still testing on how much it changes the writing. Anything above 1300L should work fine as that is basically High School to University Level Reading. - In CoT, add this under **Writing**, "[Lexile Measure]: (Determine what Lexile level to choose, it should be above 1300L.)" or any variations of it or - In Prefill, add "Keep the story Lexile Measure above 1300L." #CEFR https://www.cambridgeenglish.org/exams-and-tests/cefr/ CEFR affects mostly the grammar and vocabulary used in responses if used. Still mostly testing on this, may help with Claudism or not. - In Prefill, add "Use C1 level vocabulary from CEFR for your responses." # - - - # ####CoT Added back the CoT version if people want to use it.
