How Can the Editor Help?

General Writing Help

  • Ask questions about plot, characters, or story structure
  • Request brainstorming for chapters or character development
  • Get suggestions for dialogue or descriptions
  • The editor automatically follows your project Rules when providing suggestions and feedback

Document-Specific Questions

The editor is aware of your document and its contents, including any existing comments.

  • Ask about specific characters, chapters, or plot points
  • Request summaries or clarifications of your own work
  • Request summaries of comments

Feedback Discussion

Comment

When viewing a comment, click the chat icon to discuss it with the editor.

The editor will have full context about the feedback and can:

  • Explain the reasoning behind a suggestion
  • Provide alternatives or modifications
  • Help you implement action items

Questions About Writers Room

The editor can answer questions about how Writers Room works and what features are available:

  • Ask "How do I..." questions about using features
  • Learn about capabilities like feedback types, exporting, insights, and more
  • Get explanations of concepts like zoom levels, story bible, or plans

The editor searches the official documentation and always provides links to the relevant pages so you can read more details.

Examples:

  • "How do I create feedback?"
  • "What are zoom levels?"
  • "How do I export my manuscript?"
  • "What is the story bible?"

Future Features

We've been asked to support versioning and comparing multiple projects through the chat. Writers Room doesn't support these features yet, but they're on our roadmap.
