Why I Never Finish Anything
#scopecreepersanonymous

I asked ChatGPT and Gemini to review a short story I wrote. The feedback I got from both on various revisions pretty much defines me as a writer:

Gemini said:
*Bullet*This is a fantastic opening.

*Bullet*This revision elevates the story from a good setup to a very compelling narrative fragment.


ChatGPT said:
*Bullet*This is a polished and highly effective opening to a series or novel.

*Bullet*You should feel very confident in this draft. Are you planning to continue this story or move on to a different project?


ChatGPT did redeem itself a little with this one:
If you plan to submit or expand this into a series, this could serve as Chapter One or a standalone ā€œoriginā€ story.


But in general, this is the story of my writing life. Everything I write is just a chapter of something bigger. *Rolleyes*

Scope creep. It's no wonder I never finish anything.
