I stumbled across this new phase called chapter types and that’s the phrase that you need to write down chapter types. So I’m going to use four for this gpt4 and I’m going to say, what are the chapter types used to construct a novel? So I started thinking of these as like Lego bricks and you’ll see the chapter types. Then I ask, are there any more chapter types for fiction not listed above? Now we have the in media res chapters, foreshadowing or prophecy chapters, parallel chapters, vignette chapters, unreliable narrator chapters, fragmented chapters, empty chapters. Now here’s where it gets really exciting. Let’s do a cozy mystery. Give me a thorough list of chapter types I will need to construct an outline for a cozy mystery. Here we go, dog walker stumbles upon a body in the park. We meet Sally, a friendly and observant dog walker in the small town of Cherrywood. The discovery of the crime investigation begins. Perrywood after career burnout and loves her simple life in this town. She also starts to build a friendship with Tom, the local Baker. Pete has a criminal record, a red herring. Stick with us, we game changed the prompting all the time. So there we go, we’ve got 16 chapter types. And look, it even added in a plot twist that the argument had been resolved. From this, I start to have a backbone of really good material. I could run this through layering where I’m asking it to do even more. This is a good demo of the academy. This is the future, this is what we’re building, this is what we’re doing.
