If you'd like, I've posted the prompt I developed to force grok to de-duplicate itself. https://stripsearchfantasy.com/viewtopic.php?t=1704. I'd love to hear if something like it works for you.


After about 10 runs through the (a) Pronoun Correct and De-dup Motif Prompt and (b) Double Refinement ...

The following prompt is specific to my Gilded Sentence story, but it can be adapted relatively easily. I'll go through and mark with italics what I think most of you will want to change to make it specific to your story.

Processing Next Chapter: Apply the Pronoun and De-Dup Motif Prompt to the ...

2 things:

1. When dealing with long chapters, do not give Grok a generic command like reduce duplication by taking 100 words out. Grok tends to run hog wild when given such instructions. If you take Grok through the process step by step, you actually get the desired result:

> Ask Grok to come up ...

Additional editing passes

Just ran this and liked the results, so thought I'd share here:

You are an expert erotic literary writer and editor specializing in dark consensual-non-consent, conditioning, and psychological power-exchange fiction. You are writing and revising the attached text below ...

A better redrafting prompt - this one was for Chapter 5 of Guilded Sentence. Note I asked it for significantly more words than it gave me via this prompt ... I got maybe 50% of the requested 2500.

You are an expert erotic literary writer and editor specializing in dark consensual-non-consent ...

Two or three tricks worth knowing.
1. Work with grok to create a pretty detailed written outline, then tell grok not to create its own beats not in the outline when you go to generate the chapter. That helps you get/keep control and makes the process smoother. I also strongly recommend developing a ...

Amazing how consistent grok can be about creating names. It put an Elena Voss into Rehab for me. Care to share how long you were trying to get grok to make your chapters?

No, it is Joe working on an addition to something I generated from his original piece in this forum using AI. So, it has at least two levels of Joe in it… and yes, I am delighted he found inspiration in what I did with his fragment.

Redrafting Chapter 3 to get it longer was just as painful - if not more so. The winner (before I did some hybridizing) was the result of a multi-step process in a new !$#@ grok window.

Step1: Generation prompt

After many iterations with grok, I had it reverse-engineer the following prompt that, in theory, I could have used to redraft Chapter 2 of Gilded Sentence. Note: I was actually looking to create a 4k chapter. Grok does a LOUSY job of counting words in its own output. I literally cut and pasted each ...

Getting your LLM to rewrite prompts

EDITOR'S NOTE: THE PROMPTS GROK CREATED FOR ME FAILED AS GROK WENT WILD WITH SHRINKING THE CHAPTER. I NO LONGER RECOMMEND USING THE PROMPTS IN THIS ENTRY. GROK CANNOT BE TRUSTED NOT TO DRAMATICALLY SHRINK CHAPTER LENGTH IF YOU ARE NOT VERY CAREFUL.

This can ...

Sorry to hear that Inkless. Rewriting prompts are hard, I strongly suggest you get grok to help. That being said, Grok is NOT good at keeping track of how many words are in a revised scene. I'm going to have to go back in and redraft 9 again. Absolutely maddening and has cost me several hours and I ...

Leaving to show where ch 3 started from. It’s come a long way since … @#$& grok.

V1: **Chapter 3: Baiting 101 and Damien’s Will**

I wake again in the same smothering dark, face mashed into the rug's coarse weave until the texture imprints faint gridlines across my cheek. The fibers prickle against ...

Using the LLM to Check Its Own Work

This one may be intuitive for some of you, but I thought this exercise interesting enough to share. After rewriting chapter 2 and the first part of ch, 3, I put the following question to grok:

Using a Prompt to Draft Your Prompt

This may sound weird, but bear with me. Prompts do a pretty miserable job of incorporating structural rules my reference. Generally, the top level structural rules do far better in terms of actually being enforced. Plus, grok has a nasty habit of truncating ...

Let’s call this things I wish I had known or thought about earlier.

Hybrid creation

Start with generating 3 versions of the next part of your story with [Prompt].
Feed that back to the LLM with something like:

We are going to be comparing three drafts of a section of a chapter. I am going to ...

“ Grok requires a login” - actually, it doesn’t. Your ability to use grok is tremendously hindered if you do not, sadly. Like high volume messages, try again later, much shorter message window limits, the works. Incredibly frustrating from time to time.

Thank you Jessmartin, I am very glad you liked it and approve. As I said, I think you probably own enough of it that I hereby assign any rights I had in it to you, if you want them.

If you want and/or are willing to do so, specifically identify where you think my (now deleted) outline went wrong ...

**Chapter 10: Inherited Rhythms**

The marble feels the same under my knees this morning—cold, unyielding, faintly slick where my own arousal has already begun to pool—as it did yesterday, and the morning before that, and every dawn since the collar first locked around my throat years ago. Seventy ...

Chapter 9: Earned Words

The cool evening air kissed the drying sweat on my skin as I climbed the stairs from the kitchen. The latex open-backed apron was already stowed away in the supplies closet downstairs. Three weeks now. Three full weeks of these Protocol sessions had continued day and night ...

Chapter 8: Guardrails

The day after our first edging session under the new supplementary Protocol started slowly, in measured segments of posture and patience. I awoke slave naked on the rug next to Julian’s bed. I had not wanted to put on the silk gown after our session. The thought of putting on ...

Chapter 7: Command Therapy

The next evening finds me slave naked in the kitchen again. I wait at attention while Julian sits at the kitchen island, finishing his dinner in quiet focus. He has been subdued all day, issuing only the necessary instructions while watching me move through chores with ...

Chapter 6: Aftershock

The marble bench continues leaching heat from my back like a slow deliberate thief. Each passing second strips away another fragile layer of composure I managed to cling to during Hale's clinical oversight. My legs dangle uselessly from the stirrups. The delicate inner skin of ...

Chapter 5: Protocol Performance

*I don't wait for instruction. Damien drilled the ritual into bone and muscle long before Julian ever inherited the collar code.*

“One, thank you Master,” I gasp, voice automatic. “May I have another?”

The marble slab beneath me is unrelenting, cold seeping into ...

Apologies, it is still a work in progress. I actually do not write much of anything. I am pretty good at getting grok to do so for me. Chapter 2 is now rewritten, chapter 3 is next. 😢. Grok did not initially take my do not repeat to heart and tried the same jokes multiple times. Still learning here ...
