This is unfortunate. I distinctly remember participating in NaNoWriMo back in middle school. The writing often extended beyond November as it was actually enjoyable. Freeform writing is so much better for learning than the contrived bureaucratic style we're forced into in high school.

My eight year old daughter is busily writing several books about the adventures of cats on nanowrimo.
Are there any good open source alternatives for self hosting this kind of platform?
This makes me very sad.
Why is AI writing shunned? The book publishing industry needs to be badly disrupted.
Publishing an AI-written novel is about as thoughtful as a doctor sending you an LMGTFY link with your symptoms.
> badly disrupted
Embracing AI writing would absolutely be a disruption of the bad kind.
why? ai writing is one of the few places where ai might actually be good. topic choice, inwriting, editing are also huge things.

one thing is disruption of the publishing industry, the other is taking monetazation possibiities off authors (despite the piggy-back bloodsuckers)
so, how the AI writing will help the authors? Or, did you mean "authorship needs to be disrupted"?
authors are already using ai. it needs to be more transparently sold
You want even more bad writing? Why?!
Nobody wants to buy AI books. People who buy books would see an AI book as an outright scam.
Corollary: people who don't mind reading AI slop are in a demographic that wouldn't pay for a book.
Because it's built off the labor of actual writers, which it displaced. The people who actually read books also hate this shit.
