First of all, it created an outline simply based on my title and a brief one sentence summary. And it was spot on, it also created a four-step process as a guideline to build the story. Now, my story is already written BUT NOT PUBLISHED YET. So it's a great tool to see if my story holds up. 1. Opening 2. Middle 3. Climax 4. Resolution And it even lets me download the breakdown in Word Format. It's a no-brainer why this is so valuable for me because I write a lot of books and you think you know what works, but then you see a tool like this and it will either strengthen what you know and give you pointers along the way. It has a built-in cover template, it helps you size your book with the proper dimensions tied directly to KDP! And even offers up help if you need it. I'm still working through it but I love how it moves you through the process!

🎬 Member Shout-Out: @Nick Nebelsky Today I want to give a big shout-out to Nick! If you don’t know Nick yet, he’s one of the moderators here in the community and also runs his own community, AI Storytellers. Last month, Nick put a TON of work into creating an AI short film using Grok to enter into a contest. And if you’ve ever tried using AI to create a reel, video, or even a few consistent scenes, you know how challenging that process can be. 😅 There’s a lot of trial and error that goes on behind the scenes, so I wanted to recognize the time, creativity, and effort he put into bringing this project together. If you want to learn more about how to bring your story to life check out his group! 🎥 Take a few minutes to watch his video below and drop a comment congratulating Nick on all the hard work! 👏 Great job, Nick!

We had a great conversation about the Author Success Kit, and I got to walk everyone through how the tools can help make the publishing AND marketing side of being an author so much easier. I loved being able to actually show you the tools in action, answer your questions, and talk through some of the different ways you can use them depending on the type of book you're creating. 📚✨ A huge shout-out to everyone who showed up, participated, asked questions, and spent part of their evening with me. I appreciate you! 👉 GO WATCH THE REPLAY HERE @FrancE Desrosiers @Dr. John Elcik @Dr. Shermnae Jones @Angel Conway @Rasheed Hooda @Liisa Reimann @Melissa Puentes @Jackie Moore @Red Seh @Mary Nunaley @Diane Sampson-Monk @Stephen B.
