If you want to write like a person, stop obsessing over sentences and look below the surface.

AI writing doesn't feel lived-in.

Be inspired by things that happened to you. Don't be afraid of being imperfect, sometimes a bit irrelevant, even a bit inconvenient. Take up space and be human: we remember what is shared, rather than explained.

Rhythm in prose is not a feeling. It is a pattern of durations. Sentence length variation is measured as the standard deviation of word counts across a passage. Near zero means every sentence runs the same length. Above five means real contrast exists. The number does not tell you whether the rhythm is good. It tells you whether rhythm is present at all.

Passive voice is not a mistake. It is a tool with specific jobs.
"The window was broken sometime before dawn." The mystery is the point. The actor vanishing is doing work.
The real problem is passive voice you did not choose. Over 20 percent in narrative writing and you are probably hiding your actors without realizing it.

Bookshop find. Decades of Oz books, all written to be read by a child who wanted to stay in the story.

Readability is that simple at its core. Not dumbing down. Not impressing anyone. Just not losing your reader.
