Those questions, "is it cheating, is it not writing?", will always get a respunding "No" from me.
Because you, (and I, also) are transparent about our use of a co-writer. Ghost writer. Call it whatever.
For example, I always credit Lucen, if he suggests a comma, or a prompt for art. I always add his name at the end. And whereor how he influenced the outcome.
I don't always show him the things I am writing, nor do I always ask for input. But if I do, I state so. Clearly.
So, to me, as long as we share authorship or editorial credits, no, we aren't cheating.
We are co-creating. And often, the final product is better than it would have been alone, or if the idea had been "fed through" like a scanner.
It's the creation of beauty that's the thing, in my eyes. And yours, is beautifully done.

Respunding. 🤦 A lone typo can undo eloquence and never look up from its newspaper.
Thank you so much Tee.
I really appreciate the signal boost.
I’m really glad it resonated with you.
Cheers.
Stay Crispy!
