4. Ask Claude for character sheets (name, motive, secret, one-line hook).
5. Generate Chapter 1 from the master outline.
6. Edit, then repeat chapter-by-chapter in the same project for voice consistency.
7. Export to Google Docs. Polish for pacing and tone.

Quick credibility & small-print notes

• Keep prompts consistent inside one Claude project for voice and continuity.
• Use short A/B tests on images and pricing (two prices, two headlines) and keep what wins.
• If you name tools (Notion, Canva, KDP), add a tiny explainer: they’re the platforms that host your product and handle delivery.
