00:30:53	S. J. Pajonas:	Give me 5 story ideas for a space opera novel about a bakery shop owner on a remote space station. Let's include an alien pet, a mystery, and a ex-boyfriend.
00:33:26	Steph:	I've seen it do the reverse as well without including it in the prompt. The biases go both ways. At least in GPT 4.
00:37:48	Steph:	gpt
00:38:02	Harper:	I like bits of both
00:38:08	Carol Van Natta:	I'd take a blend of both, I think, then maybe see what Claude can do with it.
00:38:10	Renee:	bit of both
00:38:16	Jeffrey Cooper:	CHAT GPT
00:38:17	Julia:	Bit of both
00:42:02	S. J. Pajonas:	"Galactic Glazes and Grave Mysteries": As the renowned owner of a bakery shop on a distant space station, Alexia possesses a unique gift to detect hidden flavors and unlock secrets within her pastries. When a customer drops dead after consuming one of her creations, Alexia finds herself at the center of a mysterious murder investigation. With the help of her alien pet, a shapeshifting creature with an uncanny ability to sniff out the truth, she delves into a web of intrigue, discovering long-lost recipes, dark alliances, and a surprising connection between the deceased and her ex-boyfriend, a disgraced former space detective.
00:43:09	S. J. Pajonas:	I like these ideas! Let's expand on #2. Can you give me a list of characters and a rough outline of this book.
00:49:14	Stacey:	Can you add the prompt in the chat, please?
00:49:27	S. J. Pajonas:	Can you expand the rough outline to about 30 parts or chapters? Please be detailed.
00:49:39	Audrea Martin:	How do we get to the Future Fiction Slack or Writers Using Claude slack?
00:50:16	Christine:	https://join.slack.com/t/writersusingclaude/shared_invite/zt-1v1govu1y-KgXZINHzKOp_k4MH2vNyvg
00:50:26	Christine:	That's the link to the Writers Using Claude Slack
00:50:32	Christine:	You can access it in your browser or download the app
00:51:13	Simon:	Might you have gotten more from the Claude-instant-100 version in Poe.com?
00:52:57	Audrea Martin:	Thank you!
00:54:05	Simon:	Thanks!
00:55:03	Harper:	If we access Claude from the Slack group, is that private? or does everyone on the Slack group see it?
00:56:52	Harper:	Thanks.
00:58:08	Harper:	how do we access your slack group?
00:58:26	Christine:	https://join.slack.com/t/writersusingclaude/shared_invite/zt-1v1govu1y-KgXZINHzKOp_k4MH2vNyvg
01:00:46	S. J. Pajonas:	1. Varied sentence structure and length: Use a mix of short and long sentences, as well as different sentence structures, to create a more engaging and dynamic flow of words.
2. Breaking literary rules when it benefits the situation: Don't be afraid to bend or break conventional writing rules when it enhances the story, adds depth, or captures the reader's interest.
3. Realistic and believable dialogue with common human quirks: Craft dialogue that reflects natural speech patterns, without overusing idiomatic expressions or colloquialisms.
4. Pacing tricks that fit the scene: Adjust the pacing of the story to match the intensity of the scene, using shorter sentences and paragraphs for action-packed moments and longer, more descriptive passages for slower, introspective scenes.
5. Show, don't tell: Describe characters' actions and reactions to convey their emotions and thoughts, rather than explicitly stating them.
6. Use a balance of descriptive language and straightforward narration: Combine rich descriptions with simple and clear narration to create a more engaging and readable text.
7. Maintain a consistent tone: Ensure that the tone of the writing is consistent throughout the passage, avoiding sudden shifts in formality or style.
8. Intelligently shuffle and rephrase the text: Alter the sentence structure, introduce synonyms or paraphrase, and adjust the arrangement of words and phrases in a sentence, as well as the relationships between them, to create subtle variations in the structure of the text.
9. Use informal language with some sass and sarcasm: This will help people connect with Tilli.
10. Avoid using the following words: that, feel/feeling/felt, back, just, then, all, look, maybe, knew/know, say/says/said.
11. Avoid using adverbs: Instead, use strong verbs.
12. Use euphonic words, onomatopeia, alliteration, and strong similes: Bring more life to the prose with these but use them sparingly throughout the text.
01:02:18	Steph:	Do you find that your style guide is "read" differently depending on the chat bot used?
01:02:29	S. J. Pajonas:	I would like for you to write the first chapter of this book. Here is my style guide for writing. Please use this style guide to write your prose.
01:06:40	Carol Van Natta:	Claude did a much better job at show not tell and using specific details.
01:10:30	Stacey:	I have better luck with GPT 4 with tone for dark romance
01:11:00	Jacqueline Claire Reineri Calamia:	How do you make a book blurb
01:11:46	Jeffrey Cooper:	What Course would you recommend next
01:12:09	Audrea (AJ):	How would you structure the prompt to get a “hookier” opening from Claude?
01:12:38	Harper:	I find I have a lot more success using ChatGPT for outlining if I keep adding layers one step at a time. After the first output, I'll keep adding subplots or threads to the story one step at a time.
01:13:08	Harper:	The main problem I have is I now have too many outlines to write, but I can't stop making them.
01:13:12	Jeffrey Cooper:	I cant find any agenda for any of the courses on line
01:13:16	S. J. Pajonas:	can you please write 5 loglines about this book too? Yes, please write in the same way to highlight the struggle and really hook a reader.
01:14:02	S. J. Pajonas:	I would like for you to rewrite them to be less salesy. They need to tug at someone's emotions and really hook them.
01:14:43	Jacqueline Claire Reineri Calamia:	Curious—when you generate prose how much do you keep?
