WHO THESE BOOKS IS FOR
Are You Struggling to Finish Your Novel?
You have a story you’re passionate about, but somewhere along the way, you got stuck. Maybe your plot has too many loose threads. Maybe your characters feel flat. Maybe you’re drowning in revisions with no clear path forward.
You’ve tried outlining. You’ve tried pantsing. You’ve read craft books and taken workshops. But you’re still stuck in the same place, watching months turn into years while your manuscript sits unfinished.
This book is for you.
“Get Unstuck: Writing Fiction with the Help of AI” shows you how to use AI tools like Claude as your brainstorming partner to solve the specific problems keeping your book stalled.
You Don’t Need to Be Tech-Savvy
If you’re worried that using AI requires programming skills or technical expertise, you can relax.
This book is written for writers, not programmers. If you can type a question into Google, you can use the techniques in this book. Everything is explained in plain language with step-by-step guidance.
You’ll learn how to access Claude AI (there’s a free version), how to start a conversation, and exactly what to type to get helpful responses. No coding. No complicated setup. Just straightforward instructions that get you writing again.
Writing with AI Won’t Replace Your Creativity
The biggest fear writers have about writing with AI is losing their unique voice or having AI “write their book for them.”
This book addresses that concern head-on.
You’ll learn how to use AI as a collaborative partner—not a replacement for your creativity. AI helps you solve problems, explore options, and work through creative blocks. But every creative decision remains yours.
The book teaches you how to:
• Frame prompts that protect your voice
• Evaluate AI suggestions through your creative vision
• Use AI to enhance your writing, not replace it
• Maintain complete creative control at every step
Your voice stays yours. AI just helps you express it more effectively.
Never Used Claude AI Before? Perfect!
You don’t need any prior experience with AI writing tools. In fact, many writers find this book most helpful precisely because they’re starting from scratch.
Chapter 1 walks you through:
• How to access Claude AI (free and paid options)
• How to start your first conversation
• What to expect from AI responses
• How to manage conversation limits
• Basic techniques to get started immediately
By the end of the first chapter, you’ll be ready to start using AI with your own manuscript—even if you’ve never touched an AI tool before.
You’re Tired of Writing Alone? You Could be Writing with AI
Writing can be isolating. Your critique partner isn’t always available. Your writing group only meets once a month. Your spouse doesn’t understand story structure. And you can’t afford a writing coach for every little question that comes up.
If you’re tired of being stuck with no one to help you work through problems, this book shows you how writing with AI provides you a brainstorming partner available 24/7.
You can work through plot holes at midnight, develop character complexity on Sunday morning, or troubleshoot dialogue during your lunch break. AI doesn’t replace human feedback—but it fills the gaps when human feedback isn’t available.
You Write in Any Genre
This book works for all fiction writers, regardless of genre.
Whether you’re writing:
• Romance
• Mystery or thriller
• Science fiction or fantasy
• Literary fiction
• Young adult
• Historical fiction
• Contemporary fiction
The techniques apply to your work. The book teaches you how to give AI the context it needs to understand your specific genre conventions, tropes, and reader expectations. You can enjoy writing with AI no matter what genre you prefer.
You’re at Any Stage of Your Writing Journey
It doesn’t matter if you’re:
• Working on your first novel
• Stuck midway through a draft
• Revising a completed manuscript
• Planning your next book
• Writing your tenth novel
This book meets you where you are. Each chapter addresses a specific stage of the writing with AI process, from initial concept through final revisions. You can read it straight through or jump to the chapters that address your current challenges.
You Want Practical Techniques (Not Theory) for Writing with AI
This isn’t a book about the philosophy of AI or predictions about the future of writing. It’s a practical, hands-on guide.
Every chapter includes:
• Specific prompts you can copy and adapt
• Real examples of AI conversations that work
• Step-by-step techniques for common writing problems
• Troubleshooting advice for when things don’t work as expected
You’ll finish each chapter with prompts you can use immediately in your own writing. No theory. No fluff. Just practical strategies that help you make progress on your manuscript.
You’re Ready to Stop Being Stuck? Start Writing with AI
If you’re tired of staring at your manuscript feeling overwhelmed, if you’re frustrated by how long everything takes, if you’re ready to finish your book instead of just thinking about it, this book gives you the tools to move forward by writing with AI.
You don’t need more time. You don’t need more talent. You need better strategies for working through the problems that keep you stuck.
“Get Unstuck: Writing Fiction with the Help of AI” provides those strategies.
