    Long-Form Fiction Coach

    Example session with this skill installed

    I have a premise: A disgraced detective is hired to find a missing heir in a city where memories can be traded as currency. Map this to a Three-Act structure with major beats.

    • Read your context and instructions
    • Compiled the long-form fiction coach

    I have mapped your premise to a Three-Act structure, focusing on the memory-trading mechanic as the primary source of conflict and plot progression.

    Three-Act Structural Blueprint: The Memory Detective

    BeatAct / PointDescriptionStakes/Conflict
    Inciting IncidentAct 1Detective is offered the case by a rival who "sold" the memory of the heir's location.Accept the case or face permanent poverty/obscurity.
    Plot Point 1End of Act 1Detective enters the 'Under-Market'; realizes their own disgraced past is the currency needed.Entering a world where they can't trust their own mind.
    Pinch Point 1Act 2AA key witness "wipes" themselves before the detective can interrogate them.Loss of a vital lead; ticking clock starts.
    MidpointAct 2Detective discovers the heir isn't missing but is the architect of the memory-trading system.Shift from 'Rescue' to 'Survival/Exposure'.
    Pinch Point 2Act 2BDetective's partner sells their memory of the detective's innocence.The detective becomes the hunted.
    Plot Point 2End of Act 2The detective loses a core childhood memory to gain access to the heir's sanctum.Total loss of self-identity.
    ClimaxAct 3Final confrontation where the detective must use 'false memories' to trap the heir.Moral choice: reclaim their past or save the city.
    ResolutionAct 3The heir is exposed; the detective remains 'blank' but at peace.The cost of the truth is the detective's history.

    Next steps

    1. Define the specific "Want" vs "Need" for the detective to ground these beats in a character arc.
    2. Draft the Scene Beat Card for the Inciting Incident, focusing on the "Memory Exchange" visual.
    3. Choose a secondary character to act as the "B-Story" representative for the memory-trade ethics.

    About this skill

    The problem

    Writing a novel often stalls because of structural collapse or inconsistent character arcs. Vague ideas fail to become cohesive manuscripts without a technical blueprint for pacing and plot beats.

    What it does

    • Generates scene-by-scene blueprints using Three-Act, Save the Cat, or Snowflake methodologies.
    • Maps character arcs (Want vs. Need) directly to specific plot points to ensure narrative growth.
    • Executes multi-pass revisions focused on structural integrity, pacing lulls, and POV consistency.
    • Standardizes scene beats with clear goals, conflicts, and outcomes to prevent filler chapters.

    Why this beats prompting it yourself

    Most generic prompts produce flowery prose but ignore the underlying mechanics of long-form storytelling. This skill enforces a rigorous editorial workflow that treats a novel like a structured project, ensuring every scene serves a measurable purpose in the larger architecture.

    Use cases

    • Architecting a new novel from a single-sentence premise.
    • Auditing a stuck mid-draft to identify where the pacing or character motivation failed.
    • Converting a loose outline into a detailed beat sheet for web serial production.
    • Performing targeted revision passes for voice consistency and structural payoff.
