The Writer and the Machine: Collaborating with AI, by Jaimie Engle

AI won’t take your job. But someone who knows how to prompt it will.

In her book, The Writer and the Machine, Jaime Engle shows novelists, screenwriters, and entrepreneurs how to stay relevant and in demand by collaborating with AI—without losing their voice. Instead of fearing the future, she teaches how to prompt AI with story-first strategy to build intellectual property (IP) that sells.

With her proven creative framework, you’ll learn to write faster, pitch smarter, and build IP that lasts—just like thousands of other creatives she has helped.
