✂️ CUT: AI as a Junior Editor

You finished the draft — now what? Most authors either hand their entire manuscript to AI and hope for the best, or skip AI editing altogether because they don't trust it. In this class, you'll learn to treat AI as your junior editor: a tool that flags what needs fixing while you stay in the senior author's chair making every final call. Through a real 74,000-word manuscript, you'll run a continuity audit that catches timeline errors and day-of-the-week mismatches across chapters, build a Manuscript Overhaul Plan that prioritizes fixes by severity, generate revised chapters from multiple AI models and compare them side by side, and layer in a personal style guide so the AI stops defaulting to its favorite clichés. You'll work in Raptor Write with models like Claude Opus, Gemini Pro, and Sonnet — learning when to kitbash between outputs and when to trust your own instincts. This isn't about letting AI rewrite your book. It's about giving it a red pen and knowing when to agree.

✂️ CUT: Developmental Revision and Manuscript Diagnosis

A diagnostic revision course that teaches you to identify what’s actually broken in a draft—using structured lenses and triage—so you can build a prioritized revision roadmap instead of polishing scenes that will be rewritten or cut. You’ll finish with professional-grade diagnosis + planning tools (manuscript snapshot, five-lens report, and revision memo) that turn “something feels off” into a clear, executable fix order.
