Journaling and Storytelling with Microsoft Copilot

Good morning! For this blog post, I am using Microsoft Copilot to create vivid imagery by using creative prompts that tells a story through images. The prompt is what I ask for to create an image. What I like is it is free, the quality, and the image comes out the way I asked. Let's face it, I don't want to spend any more money than I have to. As for true storytelling, I have no desire to use ai to write my stories. My words are my words, and I don't need them to be manipulated. This is actually a practice session using prompts to create images and share them both today.
Prompt: This is what I want you to create for me a river with waterfalls deep in the forest of the tall, towering pine trees then let me see one owl and one bird to imagine I hear their sounds to keep my blood flowing without anxiety experiencing continuous tranquility while the sun is setting.

Prompt: This is what I would like you to create for me as I reflect on my 20 year old self with a likeness to Michelle Pfeiffer with long strawberry blonde hair in a ponytail riding a chestnut color quarter horse through clover and strawberry fields watching the sunrise beyond the Appalachian Trails and in the distance are deer, fox, chipmunks, and rabbits leaping in the field.

Riding through the clover,
chasing morning light,
soft winds behind me,
heart open wide,
mountains in the distance,
dreams in my stride,
I was twenty and fearless,
with the horse as my guide.

Prompt: Put me inside a rustic log cabin with a stone fireplace with a glow of the fire sitting at a table eating a meal prepared for a feast with books in a bookcase and a lounging chair.

Nestled in the hearth of a warm rustic cabin, the fire crackles in the stone hearth, casting golden light across the room. I'm seated at a sturdy wooden table, savoring a feast prepared with care, roasted chicken, fresh vegetables, warm bread, and a slice of pumpkin pie. The scent of the herbs and firewood fills the air. Behind me shelves brim with books waiting to be explored in a cozy lounging chair inviting me to sit after the meal. The cabin hums with quiet comfort, the kind that wraps
around like my favorite blanket. Wildlife keeps me company.
Outcome: If you know me, you can tell, the writing style (prompts) are used with vivid imagery, which is how I learned to write through many creative writing workshops, but these stories were created by ai for the purpose of creating imagery. My choice in writing blog posts is to continue with how I write use my own photography, as I have been accustomed to using, or ai, such as copilot. However, the stories will come from my heart and soul - not artificial intelligence. I never want to lose my own voice for sharing stories.
