Eight months ago, I started using AI as a secretary. In that time I wrote over 100,000 words across multiple active projects, without it taking away from my day job.
This is not because I let the AI write my novels. I’m too much of a prose snob for that. The AI handles the parts I’d rather not do myself.
“Skynet” as Your Secretary is an indie author’s practical guide to AI as support staff. Not ghostwriter, not co-author, not oracle. Secretary. This book works its way through a series of tasks you can assign the AI, with suggestions on what kind of tool you might use for each.
Inside I talk about things like: how to talk to a chatbot so that it might actually do what you want; how to build on an AI’s semi-helpful suggestions for blurbs, categories, and keywords; how to use AI to transcribe and clean up dictation; how to help your chatbot to remember your genre and preferences; how to build automations for manuscript analysis for less than a cup of coffee; and how to use a combination of Python scripts and local models to keep your AI secretary living at home with you.
If you’re an internet savvy writer who would like AI to handle some of the boring tasks for you, and doesn’t want to swim through hours of AI buzzwords on YouTube, this book is for you.
