How we use AI.
The exercises in this course use AI to write with you — your book description, your advertising headlines, your launch emails, your pitches. Here is exactly what that means, and what it asks of you.
What it writes is a first draft
Everything the exercises produce is a starting point written from your actual manuscript — not a template with your title dropped into it. It will usually be good. It is still a draft, and it is your name on it.
What it can get wrong
AI models can state a specific fact confidently and be wrong about it. In this context that usually means an invented product code, a podcast or reviewer that doesn’t exist, a quote nobody said, or a statistic with no source. It does not usually mean the writing itself is bad — it means specific, checkable claims need checking.
So: before anything goes onto your Amazon page, into an advert, into a pitch, or anywhere else public, check every specific claim in it. Every exercise ends with a short checklist showing you which parts of that particular output are worth checking and why, so you are never left guessing what to verify.
This is not legal, tax or medical advice
Two modules touch on how UK and US tax works for authors, because it catches people out. That is orientation so you know what questions to ask — it is not advice, and it is not a substitute for an accountant.
What happens to your manuscript
Your manuscript is read so the exercises can write about your actual book. What is stored, who processes it and for how long is set out in full in our privacy policy.
Any question about this that isn’t answered here — email hello@publishing.co.uk and a person will answer.
