Step-by-Step Book Writing Tutorial
Go to Book Studio and click "New Book." Enter your book title, select a genre (fiction, non-fiction, self-help, etc.), write a short description, and define your target audience. These settings help the AI match its writing style to your vision.
Use the outline panel to create chapter titles and add descriptions for each chapter. Include key points, themes, or plot events. You can also use the AI to suggest an outline based on your book concept. A solid outline produces better chapter content.
Select a chapter from the outline and click Generate. The AI writes the chapter based on your outline description, genre, and book settings. Review the output and make any immediate edits before moving to the next chapter.
Work through the outline, generating each chapter in sequence. The AI reads previous chapters to maintain narrative flow, character consistency, and thematic development. Take time to edit each chapter before generating the next one for best results.
After all chapters are generated, do a full review. Use the chapter editor to rewrite sections, improve transitions between chapters, tighten prose, and ensure consistency. The inline AI can help rephrase, expand, or condense any passage.
Export your completed book as EPUB for eBook distribution or PDF for print-on-demand. The export includes table of contents, chapter headers, and professional formatting ready for publishing platforms.
