Outline approved first
The full outline is handed to you, and not one line is written before you approve it.
A book rarely fails on a sentence: it fails on its outline. Here, writing starts with an angle picked against the clichés of your subject, then a complete outline handed to you chapter by chapter. You edit it to your taste, and nothing is written until you give your approval.
How it goes
The angle comes first
From your subject, the field's stock ideas are listed and set aside, and the book receives an angle that does not look like the shelf next door. The title, the subtitle and the outline all follow from it.
The outline in your hands
Every chapter arrives with its title and its strong ideas. You rename, add or remove chapters directly on the page. If the whole does not convince you, you request a fresh outline.
Your approval, then the writing
Once you approve, chapters are written one by one, in the order of the approved outline, and your title edits are kept word for word in the book.
What this feature does
Nothing written without your approval
Writing only starts after you approve the outline. An outline you dislike never commits the price of the full book.
The price in two steps
At launch, only the outline share is charged: 12% of the book price, with a 5 credit minimum. The writing itself is only charged at approval.
Your titles kept word for word
A title you edit in the outline appears as is in the book. Nothing rewrites it behind your back.
Chapter count under control
Let the outline size itself from the requested length, or set your own chapter count, up to twenty.
Three situations where it helps
Fix the order before it costs anything
Nadia is preparing an organisation guide and sees the tools chapter placed before the method chapter. She swaps the two titles in the outline, adds one about beginner mistakes, then approves. The book is written in the right order on the first try.
Narrow a subject that spreads too wide
Thomas wants a book about selling online and the proposed outline covers too much. He removes three chapters to focus on his specialty, social media advertising, and the book gains a real through line.
Start over without paying for a book
Inès does not like the angle proposed for her cooking guide. Instead of approving, she requests a new outline: since writing never started, she only committed the outline share, never the price of the whole book.
Who it helps
Common questions
What happens if I dislike the outline?
You edit it directly on the page, or request a new proposal. As long as you do not approve, writing does not start and only the outline share is committed.
How much does this step cost?
12% of the book price, with a 5 credit minimum, charged at launch. The rest is only charged when you approve the outline.
Can I change the proposed chapters?
Yes: renaming a chapter, adding one, removing one, everything happens on the page before approval, and your edits are kept word for word.
Is the chapter count imposed?
No. By default it is computed from the requested length, and you can also set it yourself, up to twenty chapters.
