Hi folks! I shall investigate this a little more later as set is indeed a very useful verb. For now, I can offer this little paragraph courtesy of ChatGPT:

 

At the office, Sarah always sets the bar high with her exceptional work ethic. She knows how to set the stage for success by carefully setting her goals and priorities. When faced with challenges, she doesn�t hesitate to set to work, often setting aside personal time to meet deadlines. Sarah�s ability to set a positive tone in meetings is remarkable, as she skilfully sets forth her ideas and encourages collaboration. She also sets a good example for teamwork by setting aside any differences and working harmoniously with her colleagues. In addition, she frequently sets up training sessions to set her co-workers on the path to improvement, setting them up for long-term success. Her determination to set the record straight when misunderstandings arise is admirable, ensuring clear communication within the team. Finally, Sarah�s leadership skills shine through as she sets out a clear vision for the company�s future, setting in motion plans for growth and innovation.

EDIT

And from my humble pen:

The scene was set for a truly spectacular race as the sun began to set just behind the stadium. Somebody fired the starting pistol and the runners set off. The leaders soon set a very fast pace and it looked as if a record would be set for that day. But no! Disaster! A fall by two of the race leaders soon set the cat among the pigeons and the field was wide open to anybody who was prepared to set their mind to it. A runner from the back set his sights on the front and then set the wheels in motion for one of the most exciting races that had ever been witnessed. His stunning victory set an example for thousands of would-be runners around the world who would be willing to set their eye on such an objective. His victory set the world of athletics on fire and, back in his own country, the story of that day has been set to music and adopted as the National Anthem. 

 BTW, thank you, Ruta, for the list. I am inclined to make use of that and develop something from it. Very thorough! 

Thank you dear Ruta! There was a strip along the bottom of my computer, my problem, not the site�s. And for the list. And thank you for the story, Dale, I was hoping you would answer, this is your kind of thing. I can use your story. I also had a pm from the great Anthoni, creator of my favourite resources, just check him out. He sent me an A! generated story, which is great, but now I am beginning to see what all the fuss around A1 is about.  

Thanks again,

 

Lynne
