Description

You don’t need to write alone. But you don’t have to give up your voice either.

The Writer and the Machine is a craft-first guide to using Generative AI as a creative partner—without losing control of your story, your voice, or your process.

Designed specifically for novelists and screenwriters, this book offers real-world guidance for working with AI across every stage of your project—from brainstorming and scene-building to editing, pitching, and promotion. Whether you’re stuck mid-draft or staring down a blank page, you’ll learn how to use AI to support your work, not overtake it.

Inside, you’ll discover how to:

• Collaborate with AI to structure story arcs and shape tone
• Write, revise, and rework scenes while protecting your voice
• Draft query letters, loglines, and blurbs that sound like you
• Navigate the ethics of AI authorship with confidence and clarity
• Stay in motion—even when writing gets hard

With structured Writer’s Room exercises, a complete prompt library, and real case studies from working writers, this is your guide to writing smart, writing deep, and writing forward—with a machine in the passenger seat, and your voice at the wheel.
