As an independent author, I know that trust between my readers and me is paramount. Writing an authentic thriller requires a human touch, and I want you to know exactly what goes into the creation of the Mason Wade series.

First and foremost, my writing is mine. I do not use AI to generate my prose, plots, or the pacing of my books. The story you are reading was crafted entirely by my own hand through many revisions, consuming countless hours of effort. Obviously, I require a third-party editor to ensure the highest quality. Therefore, I employ a real, professional human editor who reads and edits the manuscript word for word, the old-fashioned way.

Like most modern authors, I use technology to support my creative workflow. I rely on Grammarly to catch typos, and I use search engines and AI to help research and summarize the intricate technical topics my books require. Finally, I use AI-assisted design tools to help build my website graphics and book covers. But when it comes to the story itself, the creative heavy lifting is 100% human. Thank you for supporting independent art!
