In Which Chat GPT Introduces My WIPs For Me

Hey, sweet friends! I hope you’re all doing well 💛 Today I have a post that I’m very very excited about. I’ve honestly been waiting excitedly to write this post for a while now 😅 I’m pretty sure you guys are already familiar with Chat GPT, but in case you aren’t, it’s an AI program that is basically a genius. I can’t decide whether to be fascinated or terrified by it 😂 I’ve decided to have it introduce my current WIPs for me, and I’m very excited to see what it comes up with.

Friendly reminder that Chat GPT wrote these synopsis’ for me 😉

For my main WIP, Little Flowers, I gave Chat GPT a very simple sentence prompt, asking it to “write me a synopsis for a YA romance about 4 sisters, named Chloe, Ly, Honey, and Adri. It is a contemporary retelling of Little Women. featuring autistic girls, mental illness, french boys, and sisterly bonds.”

It’s response however was very far from the actual story premise 😂

“Four Sisters and a French Boy” is a heartwarming YA romance that follows the lives of four sisters named Chloe, Ly, Honey, and Adri, who are navigating their teenage years while dealing with autism, mental illness, and their unique sisterly bonds.

Set in a small town in the US, the sisters are raised by their single mother who works long hours as a nurse to support their family. The girls are very close, but each has their own struggles to deal with. Chloe, the oldest sister, is the responsible one who takes care of her younger sisters and struggles with anxiety. Ly, who has autism, is passionate about art and struggles to communicate her feelings. Honey, the third sister, is a talented musician who is coping with depression. Adri, the youngest, is a spunky and adventurous girl who is trying to find her place in the world.

Their lives are turned upside down when a French exchange student named Pierre arrives in their town and is placed in their home. Pierre is charming, handsome, and speaks little English, making him a bit of an enigma. The sisters are all drawn to him in different ways, but it’s Chloe who ends up spending the most time with him. As they spend time together, Chloe and Pierre develop a deep connection, and Chloe finds herself falling in love.

However, their happiness is short-lived when Pierre’s exchange program ends, and he has to return to France. Chloe is devastated, but her sisters rally around her and help her through the pain of their separation. As the girls navigate their own struggles, they also learn the importance of sisterhood, forgiveness, and the power of love.

“Four Sisters and a French Boy” is a contemporary retelling of Little Women, with a diverse cast of characters and themes that explore the complexities of mental health, autism, and the bonds of sisterhood. This heartwarming novel will leave you rooting for the sisters and their journey towards love, self-discovery, and acceptance.

I personally thought this was hilarious. Pierre is literally the most cliché French name ever 😂 and oh my word, it actually sounds like a story I’d read. I mean- it wasn’t accurate at all, but it was entertaining. Even though it got the title wrong 😂

In actuality, Little Flowers is about 4 sisters who end up befriending a quirky French boy who moves in across the street from them. Chat GPT’s description of Chloe was fairly accurate– although Chloe doesn’t have anxiety and is so much more than just the “responsible older sister.” Ly’s description was actually accurate to Honey, so that’s kinda cool. Ly herself though, is a writer type and not into art at all, and is not autistic (she does have ADHD though). Honey’s description was not at all accurate to any of the sisters, and Adri’s was very simplified.

Also *cough* Chloe doesn’t fall in love with “Pierre” I’m keeping his actual name a secret 😀

Overall, I’d rate that synopsis a 3/10. It was well written, but had nothing to do with my actual project.

For my second WIP, Comeback Kids (also known as Project Sunshine), I gave a pretty good summary of the plot, in my opinion, and I was pleasantly surprised by how good the synopsis Chat GPT came up with was.

“Naemi has been confined to her bed for a year, trapped in the aftermath of a devastating accident that claimed the lives of everyone she loved. She feels lost, alone, and has lost all sense of purpose. But everything changes when she meets Milo, a charming and mysterious boy who seems to understand her in ways that no one else can.

Milo has his own demons to confront, and Naemi is drawn to his strength and determination to overcome them. As they spend more time together, Naemi begins to find new reasons to live and starts to believe that maybe there is a future for her after all.

But just as Naemi starts to heal, the past comes back to haunt her, and she’s forced to confront the truth about the accident that changed her life forever. With Milo by her side, she must find the courage to face her fears and learn to let go of the past in order to embrace a brighter future.

A heart-warming and poignant tale of love, loss, and redemption, this young adult romance novel is a must-read for anyone who has ever struggled to find their way in the world.”

Chat GPT

There’s not much I would critique about this synopsis, aside from the fact that Naemi’s accident didn’t kill everyone she loved. It was only 3 of her friends, and she only truly loved one of them 😅 Other than that though, it was pretty accurate.

I’d rate that synopsis 9/10. It actually sounds like a legit book synopsis.

This next WIP is actually currently in the early stages of writing, but I’m already obsessed. I’ve had this story in the back of my mind for a while, so I’m really excited to finally be working on it seriously.

“Bee County” is a touching middle-grade novel in verse that tells the story of a group of unlikely friends who come together to face their fears and overcome their struggles.

At the center of the story is a manic pixie dream girl named Luna, who is always on the move and never stays in one place for too long. When she arrives in Bee County, she quickly becomes the talk of the town with her quirky personality and free spirit. But as the days go by, her friends start to realize that Luna is not as carefree as she seems and needs saving from her troubled past.

Enter a boy who feels like a ghost, struggling with the loss of his mother, twin sisters who couldn’t be more different, one popular and one a recluse, a boy without legs, who is a whiz at fixing cars, and a literate goat, who just loves to read. Together, they form an unlikely alliance, each bringing their own unique talents and struggles to the group.

As they spend their days exploring the county and finding adventure, they also discover the power of friendship, courage, and the importance of being true to oneself. Through the magic of verse, readers are swept up in the lives of these charming characters and their journey towards self-discovery and acceptance.

With its vibrant cast of characters and poignant storytelling, “Bee County” is a touching and unforgettable novel that will captivate middle-grade readers and leave them with a renewed sense of hope and wonder.

I genuinely love that synopsis so much, oh my word. It’s actually pretty accurate, although it has some inaccuracies. I’m shocked that Chat GPT knew what a manic pixie dream girl was 😂

Although, I will say that the manic pixie dream girl (Luna) is actually named Cass, and that the boy without legs (Atticus) is most definitely not a whiz at fixing cars. I might add that to the story though, because I like the idea. Also, I find the goat’s description so funny and I’m not sure why 😂

I’d rate this one a 8/10, because it was pretty accurate, and also gave me some ideas.

This last synopsis is not at all accurate for my WIP, To The Runaways. There’s too much here to critique, so I’m just not going to explain all that’s wrong with it 😂 I’ll just leave you guys with the synopsis, which has absolutely nothing to do with TTR.

In “Stars in Their Eyes,” a gripping YA novel, a group of runaway misfit teenagers leave behind their troubled pasts and set out on a journey of self-discovery, adventure, and the pursuit of their dreams.

When seventeen-year-old Mia’s world falls apart, she takes a chance and runs away to New York City, hoping to find a new start. Along the way, she meets a group of teenagers just like her, each with their own unique story and struggles, but all with stars in their eyes and dreams in their hearts.

There’s Max, a guitar prodigy who dreams of making it big on the music scene, and his best friend Jazzy, a gifted dancer who wants to dance her way to the top. Then there’s Leo, a tech genius who wants to start his own company, and the enigmatic Raven, who is haunted by her past and dreams of a better future.

As they navigate the gritty streets of New York City and face the challenges of survival and growing up on their own, the group becomes a family and forms an unbreakable bond. Together, they face their fears, pursue their passions, and fight for their dreams, all while trying to stay one step ahead of the dangers that come with being runaway teenagers.

“Stars in Their Eyes” is a powerful and inspiring novel about the resilience of youth and the courage it takes to chase your dreams. With its authentic characters, gripping storyline, and raw emotion, this novel will captivate readers and leave them cheering for the misfit teenagers who refuse to give up on their hopes and aspirations.

Sorry, Chat GPT, but I’m rating this a 2/10, only because it was completely inaccurate. Was it too much to expect an AI program to write an accurate synopsis for a novel it has no context about? Potentially. Do I have any regrets? Not at all 😂

I really hope you guys enjoyed this overly rambly post! I know I personally had a lot of fun writing it (:
