Use AI to Outline your NaNoWriMo?

Are you desperate for a NaNoWriMo idea?

Maybe you should consider using AI technology to create a 30-day outline for November. 

Maybe I’ll get hate for this, but I’m curious how people will respond to this idea. I’m sure it’s already been done.

I’m not endorsing AI to write a novel, but I see value in using it for creating an outline for NaNoWriMo. Here’s a formula to give it:

  • Create a 30 chapter outline for a fantasy novel. Each chapter should be a 1-3 sentence summary. 
  • In one sentence, describe where the story begins and where it ends.
  • 1-3 sentences. List the name of your protagonist. Describe a couple of characteristics. Give the goal of the protagonist.
  • List two or three supporting characters and give characteristics for them. Give each of them a goal. 1 sentence each.
  • List a main antagonist and do the same thing you did with the protagonist. 1-3 sentences.
  • List a couple of minor antagonists with characteristics and goals.
  • List two or three settings, 1-3 sentences each.

Press enter, and you should have a list of thirty days of scenes to write. 

Let me know what your results are like.
