《Tales of Disruption》Brought to You by Create and Make
Advertisement
Dear Miss Smith,
I regret to inform you that we cannot accept your manuscript in its currently written state. The cost of editing it would far exceed its sponsored profitability. We suggest you consider a rewrite and refrain from the rampant use of non-branded pronouns.
As you know, in today's world, no one buys books anymore. Congress recently passed the Copyright Dismissal Act and decided that no text or artwork shall ever sell for direct profit. They reasoned that any access to creative works for a fee would violate the right to reproducibility clause in the Freedom of Sharing Act.
Just between you and me, I believe they simply could not keep up with all the scanning and copying on the Internet. So they made it into law to satisfy the 'share anything and everything' digital culture of their new electorate.
To help you in your endeavor, I have quoted a sample passage of yours below. I have also inserted an example of how you should rewrite it to satisfy the publishing industry's latest branding criteria.
Your Version
Jennifer drove home on the freeway and faced a tough commute, with so many cars jamming the lanes. She opened her phone and played some music because the vehicles were moving at such a slow pace; she needed something to sing along to keep herself awake.
Jennifer had picked up some coffee on the way, which helped her for the long drive home. She rang her kids on the phone and told her oldest child to make dinner for her siblings to make sure they did their homework. While driving, Jennifer looked at her phone for a split-second, felt a thump, and her steering wheel airbag popped open. She could hear lots of banging and crashing as other vehicles did the same.
What We Suggest
Advertisement
Jennifer drove her Global Elite Class X20 sedan, rated best in its class for comfort and safety by Autonomous Cars & Safety Magazine July 2064. She faced a lot of challenges on the road due to other car brand's inferior routing systems. Unlike her superior X20, other brands cannot correctly predict road hazards and weather conditions. They lack a global connected communication cloud-based grid — all of which the X20 features with enhanced cooperation and efficient speeds.
She opened her Smart Systems LR-24 8G holographic mobile entertainment and communication center and played Juliet Summers #1 sing-along I Will Love You to Bits Even When You're Obsolete, sponsored by the EZ Drone Shopping Network.
She had pre-ordered a Mocha Mint Boost, which transferred straight to her vehicle's Instant Shop Deluxe Premium Package Accessory, as she drove-by a robotically crewed Always Fresh—a #1 rated health department fast-food chain with zero downtime, cryonic storage to avoid spoilage, and never any communicable diseases. The Mocha Mint Boost kept her rejuvenated for her adventurous, enjoyable, and refreshing voyage home.
She spoke to her always available and friendly Smart Systems voice assistant who can communicate in 6,500 languages, including all their dialects with its built-in translator. She had it talk with her children to persuade them using advanced Always Right AI Guardian algorithms to order an Always Fresh dinner as it will be delivered on time and 100% nutritional, meeting the latest Health Department's strict dietary guidelines. The voice assistant will also seamlessly communicate with her Every Families Nanny Model M-32 robotic companion to enter a teaching mode. With an All-Knowledge Exabyte subscription plan, her M-32 will tutor the children fluently and expertly with their school subjects.
While her X20 was on autopilot and correctly keeping a safe distance with its proprietary Maximum Protection System, which includes early warning and preventive radar, lidar, and predictive tracking, an inferior brand's fleet of vehicles had yet another network systems failure. They went into fast reverse, causing untold damage to all other brand's crudely designed cars.

Fortunately, Jennifer's X-20's safety system licensed by Your Safe With Us—with international patents—deployed biodegradable and environmentally compliant foam, encapsulating her body while allowing her to breathe and stay safe. Her X-20 immediately contacted private and public emergency services with perfect efficiency, providing her exact GPS location while continuously monitoring her vital signs.
We hope this rewritten example will help you with the rest of your project.
This conversion was brought to you by Create and Make—'Create with a Vision and Make with a Profit,' helping you bring creativity and profitability together.
Sincerely,
Mr. Robert Adams, Chief Editor

Embers of the Shattered God
For over three thousand cycles since the Ascension, magic has been available to the people of the Colonized Worlds. An era of prosperity marred by conflict. Then, a hundred cycles ago, the wars ceased. The precarious peace between the Empire and the Kingdom of Ascion ends when an imperial ambassador is murdered. The case is thoroughly investigated, irrefutable evidence gathered, and a manhunt for the killer begins. The only problem? The investigators don’t seek to restore peace – they seek to justify war. As many people’s fates get entangled by the crime, who can say which ones the chaos will reap? [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Release Schedule Chapters will be released once per week, though I've not yet decided on a specific day. Regardless, there shouldn't be more than seven days between chapters, but should that be the case, I'll state it in the post author note. Severed Fates, book 1 of EOTSG A multiple POV fantasy set in the future. This book will feature elements of space travel and advanced technology, but not too much, and the main focus will be on the characters as they strive to achieve their goals. All feedback is appreciated because it'll help me improve the story.

The Chronicle of a Witch
It is a story about a young girl that abruptly transmigrated into the body of another young girl (at least in appearance) in another world filled with Magic. She notices that she becomes a Dungeon Master and for a thousand years... she lives a lazy life. However, one day, she lost all of her power and she is kicked out of her Dungeon! And the world's changed that video games level and classes governed the power system of the new world! What will she do as a weak and fragile girl? Will she get her power back? How will she survive in the harsh world? Author's note: I will update daily if possible and each chapter is around 2,000 words. Gores, Sexual Contents, and Traumatising Contents are limited and I try my best not to write them. However, for the progress of the story, I can't help but write some of them in the latter part of the story. However, don't expect them too much ^_^ English is not my native language, so there might be grammatical errors (maybe a lot), but I'll try to fix them, so constructive critiques will be appreciated (^_^)

Duck Around and Find Out
Flap never wanted to be anything more than a pond duck. He was perfectly happy with his life of mating, migrating, and eating fish. But all that changed when a spacefaring race of war-crazed giant chickens confused him for Earth's greatest gladiator, all on account of a sketchy lease deal from a few million years prior. Now Flap is Earth's Champion, unwittingly wrapped up in a high stakes conflict almost as old as time itself. Armed with a real dumbass of an artificial intelligence, a brain full of pop culture mush, and a hybrid body courtesy of an Academy Award-winning actor, Flap now has all the tools he needs to prevail in the bloody contest. The only question is whether he can learn to use them to save the Galaxy before his implant drives him nuts. Duck Around and Find Out is an absurd adventure across space and pond featuring GameLit elements, more movie and tv references than you can shake a stick at, and a cast of anthropomorphic animals that would make a furry cream their pants. Do you like ducks? And do you like space? Are you also a weirdo? If you answered yes to all three, this just might be the story for you. So if you're brave enough, Duck Around and Find Out.
