So... I'm back. Again. *inhale dramatically*. Yay! · 11:29am Mar 13th, 2023
Yeah, the last time I published here was in 2017. Damn, time flies!
Last year, I finally finished my saga, "Chronicles of the Hidden Equestria," which I had written in Spanish. I wanted to translate it, but I was way too lazy to do so. I mean, I love writing and creating stories and novels, but simply translating my own work felt like a chore. It was something I did not enjoy. While I craved more attention for my stories, I was not willing to make a chore out of one of my passions.
But now, Chat GPT exists. Last week, someone asked on Twitter how it worked for translations, and I decided to give it a go... and I was very, VERY surprised. Here is my Twitter thread comparing my original story to Chat GPT's translation, and the result was pretty amazingly accurate!
Now, I can have a first draft of the translation ready in a matter of 10 or 20 minutes. Then, I just need to proofread it, correct some idioms that Chat GPT may not have gotten correctly... and that's it! It is ready to be published!
"The Chronicles of the Hidden Equestria" is my last goodbye to the world of fanfiction and my homage to this fandom that I still love so much. I plan to publish one episode a week, so the entire saga will be ready in a little over one year if everything goes according to plan.
I hope you enjoy this saga as much as I enjoyed writing it. Feel free to contact me if you wish to do so. :)
Bro hoof!
