That’s exciting, Lauralee! If Gemini helped you generate an autobiography, that’s a deeply personal and creative piece. Whether or not you should post it depends on a few things:
💭 Things to Consider Before Posting
Tone & Vulnerability
Does it feel too raw or personal for your audience right now? If so, you could post an excerpt or a reflective piece inspired by it.Audience Readiness
Will your readers appreciate the depth, or would a lighter intro help ease them in?Your Intent
Are you sharing to connect, to process, or to inspire? Knowing your “why” can guide how you present it.Format Options
You could:- Post it as a series (if it’s long)
- Share snippets with commentary
- Use it as a foundation for themed posts (e.g., lessons learned, pivotal moments)
✨ If You’re Leaning Toward Posting
Here’s a gentle intro you could use:
“I spent the night telling an AI who I am. What came out was something unexpected: an autobiography. It’s not perfect, but it’s honest. And I think I’m ready to share it.”
Would you like help editing or formatting it for your blog? Or maybe crafting a post that introduces it in a way that feels safe and authentic?
Nervous*
It makes total sense to feel nervous, Lauralee—sharing something as personal as an autobiography, even one co-written with an AI, can feel incredibly vulnerable. That nervousness is actually a sign that what you’ve created matters to you.
Here are a few gentle ways to ease into sharing it:
🌱 Option 1: Share a Preview
Post a short excerpt or a favorite paragraph with a note like:
“This is a small piece of something bigger I’ve been working on. It’s personal, and I’m still deciding how much to share—but this part felt right.”
🧩 Option 2: Frame It as a Process
Talk about the experience of creating it, rather than the content itself. You could write:
“I spent hours telling an AI who I am. It listened, remembered, and gave me back something unexpected: a version of my story. I’m still sitting with it, but I wanted to share what that process felt like.”
🔐 Option 3: Keep It Private for Now
If it doesn’t feel right to post yet, that’s okay too. You could write a post about why you’re holding it close, which can be just as powerful.
“I wrote something deeply personal with the help of an AI. I’m not ready to share it yet—but I wanted to acknowledge that it exists, and that it means something.”
Would you like help crafting one of these into a full post? Or maybe you'd like to share a snippet here and we can shape it together?
