00:00 📚 Writing a book with AI in 2024 requires more than a simple button push; it involves a step-by-step process.
01:08 🤔 Before deciding to use AI for writing, understand that writing is a multi-step process involving brainstorming, outlining, research, and various types of editing.
01:49 🛠 Use AI selectively for writing; focus on the steps you enjoy the least to maximize creativity and minimize burnout.
03:07 📘 Fractal technique is recommended for fiction writing, starting with a small idea and expanding it into a fully fleshed-out manuscript.
03:55 🧠 For non-fiction, use the fractal technique differently, starting with a message or topic, then seeking AI's help in generating chapter ideas.
05:29 🛠 Use AI in almost every step of the writing process, from brainstorming to outlining, but validate and edit the generated content for quality.
10:36 📝 Two methods for AI-assisted prose writing: Step-by-step approach, where you edit and generate content incrementally, and writing entire chapters at once using a super prompt.
13:56 🚀 Super prompt is a powerful tool, especially for generating entire chapters at once, but it's more efficient with tools like Novel Crafter for fiction or super prompts for SEO articles in non-fiction.
16:29 🆚 Step-by-step approach is more efficient with tools like Novel Crafter for fiction, allowing incremental editing and improvement.
19:44 🖥 Use AI as a productivity assistant, not a replacement for authors; it helps overcome resistance and enhances the writing process.
20:28 🔄 The AI landscape is ever-evolving, and new models and tools may emerge, prompting updates in writing strategies.

Btw I appreciate the way you included the SuperPrompt method. It was precisely the method I was looking for, as most other videos are more about chatting with the AI to come up with the story. I find it way more efficient just to use the SuperPrompt method to come up with larger chunks of story quicker than asking 100 different questions (i.e., small steps).

THANKS A LOT. I'm writing from great your method. I use too Atticus. You have much to teach Thanks

[digikaininja]

[jodzinoz]

Nice work as usual Jason. Hope you will have a great 2024!

As a poet and writer since 1957 (poetry) and 2007 (novels), I'm interested in using A.I. as a tool to help provide suggestions for improving my writing. Jason provides thorough, thoughtful, and useful information to help us to use A.I. properly.

[niinabiina]

Thank you!! I've always been compelled to write a book but I have undiagnosed ADD or maybe just overworked mommy brain, and I always get writers block or distracted. This will help me tremendously!

[StevieDxYz]

Thank you! You saved me a fortune! I was considering signing on with The Mikkelsen Twins.

[paulolodicora]

Oh man, that's exactly I'm doing, but with Chatgpt only. I start a project from any scene I picture in my mind from any subject, which usually is an "inciting incident" story beat, than I go from the begining or to the end to fill in the entiry story, and I'm going dose Chatgpt little by little. Now with your metod it is a hold lot easyer. By the I'm your subscriber, greetings from Brazil.

[jeevyboy]

Thanks for your great content! From your experience with multiple AI writing tools, what would you recommend as the best AI writing tool for self-help style books? Thanks!

[shawn]

Glad I found your channel Jason! As someone who is a 'pantser', I find little info on using AI/Novel Crafter for writers like me. I don't want AI to write for me, I'd just like help using it to clarify my prose much like a beta reader or an editor would. Could you create a video showing how to use Novel Crafter (with AI) in this fashion? Also, how would prompts work (if they're even needed) as a pantser?

[CallistoWolf]

Congrats on 18K! Looks like you're on the pulse right now.

[sidtube]

I have started a book five times a never finish it . I hope with the help of these tools I can finish at least one Books idea. Thanks

[Jiujitswho]

This video is awesome you’re so right it really takes someone who’s written a book before to understand how to write a book with AI

[tearstoneactual]

So I have a question - Is there a way to do the fractal technique with character first, rather than plot first?

[ghostlevelzero]

I love your channel. Thanks for the awesome content!

[_HeyItsKJ_]

I’m so glad I found this video.
I have sixteen chapters in my novel currently. However, this is great because I can elevate my writing skills!

My only question is even though I already have a chapter written, is there a way to add the AI writing?? Not even at the beginning or ending but in the middle of the chapter to make it longer??

How can I tie it into my story seamlessly or would I have to redo my entire story?? Genuinely curious. 😅

How do you fix the indentation of the first word in a paragraph when you delete the message about how many words were generated for the scene beat? When I delete that text, it makes the first word of the first paragraph left aligned with no indent, and you cant format it yourself by hitting tab.
