Could someone write a textbook using novel crafter, if so, what additional would be needed? If not, no crafter how would you write it? If you don’t advise using novel crafter, how would one write a Textbook with AI?
OMGosh - Been waiting for this for so long! Thanks! Do you have any plans on adding nonfiction resources to your membership anytime soon? This is the only thing holding me back from joining.
Neat stuff, I don’t have novel crafter but I did use your fiction super prompt and modified it to the max and just fished my first draft (4 weeks in the works) and now am on the editing side of things. Non fiction. The super prompt is massive. But thanks for this. I want to write one more non fiction and I’ll jump into my second book (fiction) the sequel to the first that I wrote 10 years ago.
You lost me at 12:33. You don't show how you got from where you were in novelcrafter to the next area, looks like Scene Beat. How'd you get there? Have looked and am not seeing it. Edit: Thankfully my Google Fu is strong and I figured this out. Rather than go into explanation here I will just say if you have the same issue as I, know that I Googled "how do I navigate to scene beat in novelcrafter" and that got me to where I found the answer.
Novel crafter is just too damn confusing, unintuitive and overcomplicated. feels like you need a masters degree is software programming in order to set it up. i'm not doing all that.
Actually, it is only as complicated as you want or need it to be. We all overthink things. I was paralyzed for a short while because I thought I needed to know the exact right way to use it. Then I saw that’s not true at all, and that I did not need to.tweak all the things, or know how to right from the beginning. I got great results just using the system prompts with no tweaks. I did’t force myself to learn how to use the plan tab for outlining, so i had a side outline, and used beats on the fly, only experimenting with which ai gets me the results I like best. After narrowing down the models, I started working on rephrasing/kit bashing. Along the way, I learned from people’s comments on their discord, and got my feet wet making one tiny change to a prompt. Perhaps give it another try, start on a throwaway story you don’t care about, and you might be surprised.
This insanely cool Jason. So, to be clear, if I’m writing a historical non-fiction novel, then putting in snippets of actual historical events that took place during the span of the novel would be a good idea?
Thank you for this video! I attempted to do nonfiction in Novelcrafter, but got stuck and decided to postpone using Novelcrafter until I was able to do a better preparation. This video certainly helps; I only tried adjusting the prompts
Thanks! great video, Hi, I'd like to ask something. I'm new to this. When you pay for a plan on NovelCrafter, is the Claude models already included, or do you need to pay for your own Claude account and integrate it with API? i want to use Claude with Novel crafter to write a non fiction book, thanks again!!
You pay for NC and then get a separate OpenRouter account to integrate Claude. It’s pay as you go but Claude 3.5 Sonnet is very cheap. Less than a cent per chat usually.
This is interesting. I have been wanting to try to use novelcrafter to write adventure modules for D&D and Fighting Fantasy style game books. This seems like it might be a starting path to that.
I tend to craft technical writings, like some 300+ articles in the last year. Would Novelcrafter be able to assist in assembling a longer format from these? I might need a feature that helps capture technical terms and places them in an index.
Thanks for your video. Very helpful. I was curious to know if there is a reason we add openai as an API key when I noticed the openrouter has the GPT models? Is there a different reason? Would it be that the openai has more GPT models in comparison to openrouter?
