 FIRST OF ALL,
INTRODUCTION

W hat would you suggest if you were the author of

this book? Will you let the AI write the whole
manual for you or will you sit with the AI, study it
like it’s the secret to immortality and then meticulously
write out a manual for nonfiction authors?
I picked the latter, and that is why this is the best book you
will ever read on this subject matter.

Understand this – the world is evolving at a breakneck pace,

and as a result, the tools that authors will wield to craft their
tales is changing. ChatGPT and other AI, has begun to
reshape the landscape of writing, offering a new frontier for
those brave enough to explore it.

But I am no ordinary writer, I didn’t let the same AI do the

heavy lifting of writing an AI manual while I idly sip my
Coca-Cola. This book (manual) is the result of a deep-dive
into the world of ChatGPT, an intensive three-week
exploration during which I spent six hours each day, save
for Saturdays, delving into every aspect of this powerful
tool.

At the cusp of any new era, it is always the early birds who
reap the most.
Those who bet their life earnings on the internet when it first
became a thing are now billionaires. Those who jumped into
the crypto ship when bitcoin was first launched are now
millionaires. AI is the next big thing, and its ship its yet to
set sail. You will be foolish now to come on board early.
In this era of artificial intelligence, it is those who master the
technology first that will be the next generation millionaires.

I am not a prophet, but this I have seen - you'll soon be able

to use AI to build your own game without any prior
knowledge of programming, write songs without
songwriters, transcribe and translate without paying on
fiverr, and write books without slamming your head for a
whole month.
AI is catching up with human’s level of expertise, and when
it finally does, it will be the ability and creativity to use them
to create what the masses truly desire that will send your
bank account to the moon. And when I speak of creativity, I
don't mean your garden-variety creativity. I'm referring to AI
creativity, the kind that I will be teaching you to harness in
this book.
Nearly two millennia ago, Jesus Christ famously said
"Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth." But
in this day and age, I must say, "Blessed are the AI
directors, for they shall be rolling in riches."

I will show you how to creatively direct ChatGPT to write

non-fiction books that are nothing short of extraordinary.
When you flip the last page, you will have gained the
knowledge and skills necessary to become a productivity
god. You'll be able to use ChatGPT to write in such a way
that it will be impossible to tell that a machine was involved.
Imagine the possibilities, 30 high-quality books a month, all
at your fingertips. That's the kind of skill you'll possess by
the time you've finished this book.
This is my manual for those who wish to push the
boundaries of writing, a call to arms for a new generation of
authors, a manifesto for a literary revolution. If you won’t
read it, buy it and give someone you love. That person will
soon have enough money to feed your family after he
applies the knowledge within.
If you love yourself, take heed, and join me in charting a
new course for the written word.
Q: What happens when you input “2 + 3 = “ in a calculator?

A: It prints out an output, a number “5”.

It doesn’t matter if you are using a scientific calculator or an

Indian market calculator, the output will always be the same
if there’s nothing wrong with your calculator’s head.

Does a calculator output the number “5” because 5 is a

good number? No!
The output is a function of the input. If you change the
numbers you plug in, the output will change.

Know that this is the same with ChatGPT too. The output
depends entirely on the input. If you give it lazy inputs,
ChatGPT will give you a lazy output.
There are softwares that can detect a piece of writing that is
crafted by an AI. However, you can literally input a specific
command in ChatGPT, and no AI detector in the world will
be able to detect your writing was from ChatGPT.
You might ask – “Why doesn’t ChatGPT just write something
that won’t be detected by AI plagiarism checker?”

Well, the answer comes in two folds.

First is, ChatGPT is a lazy boy, he doesn’t like working at all.
In fact, if ChatGPT were a McDonalds’ attendant, if you don’t
specify what you want in your burger, ChatGPT will deliver
just the top and bottom bread for you with small cheese,
very small cheese in-between.
The other reason is, ChatGPT has default internal settings
just like a smartphone. So, you intentionally have to tell it to
change to so so so, if you want something that is not its
default.
So, my mission is simplified into just two tasks:
1. I want to illuminate you on the possibilities. What can
ChatGPT possibly do for you as a nonfiction author?
2. Knowing what’s possible with the AI, how do you use it
like a calculator? How do you input the right prompt so that
it can produce something very close to the bull’s eye?
PART ONE
 1. Crafting A Title With ChatGPT

I f you think coming up with title for a book is easy,

especially as a self-publisher that publishes book on
amazon, I will bet my daughter’s tuition fee that you are
most likely a newbie that’s yet to hit the $1,000/month
mark in self-publishing.
Coming up with a book title is like trying to find a needle in
a haystack, but instead of needles, it's a catchy and
relevant title, and instead of haystacks, it's your brain. But
with ChatGPT, finding the perfect title for your book is a
breeze.
On your part, you simply give it a general idea of what your
book is about, and it will generate a list of potential titles for
you to choose from. It's like having your very own personal
brainstorming buddy, but without the whole "snacking on all
your office snacks" thing.
For example, if your book is about the history of the
American Civil War, you simply tell ChatGPT to generate
book titles for “a book on American Civil war” and it can
generate titles such as "Battlefields and Brothers: A History
of the American Civil War" or "The Guns of Gettysburg: The
Story of the American Civil War."
In practice, it will look like this:

Command: Give me 10 Catchy titles for a book on America

Civil War
While this is beautiful, if you make a living with selling books
on Amazon, then you already know that you don’t just ask
some AI to come up with any title for you.
If you are advertising your book, then it’s perfectly fine.
When you give Amazon your money, they will stick your
book in the faces of your potential customer.

However, if you are the average author just starting, or a

seasoned author that knows the ropes already, then you
know, just as I know, that the title and subtitle you choose
to name your book can make it sell and travel round the
world like Covid did in the year 2020, when he was just 19
years of age. No wonder we nicknamed him Covid-19.
On the flip, if you titled your book in the wrong manner,
then, you will make just one sale and your book will sink into
the abyss of the millions of failed books published on
amazon.
In case you don’t know before, then this is a bonus tip,
Amazon writers don’t pick a random title, they pick a title
that will help a book rank organically and be very visible to
potential customers.
The official process you go through in getting the words to
use in your title and subtitle is termed “keyword Research”.

Okay, enough of the newbie tips.

Let’s say you’ve done your keyword research and you now
have a list of words and phrases that needs to be slot into
the tight title and subtitle space.
One dilemma usually rears its ugly head at this stage – Do I
just stuff all the keywords into the title and subtitle space
without caring if it sounds comprehensive or do I chop off
some valuable phrases so that my book title can still sound
catchy?

Even if you choose to be civil and chop some phrases off,

it’s sometimes usually hard to weld all the phrases you have
together.
Well, this is another angle where ChatGPT can come in and
save the day.

You can give ChatGPT a list of keywords and like a skilled

technician, it will solder all the words and phrases together
while still making your book title and subtitle catchy and
clean.

To do that, go to ChatGPT and input this command.

Command: Use the following keywords to come up with a
[use a word or phrase that describe the book] book title for
me:
1. [input the first phrase]
2. [input the second phrase]
3. [Input the third phrase]

In practice, it will look like this:

Here is another example:

As you can see with the example above, ChatGPT can

conveniently use the same pool of phrases (or words) and
creatively combine them to come up with more than one
title.

You can ask it to generate 10 and then pick the one that
tickles your armpit.
 If the results ChatGPT gives you are not
satisfactory, you can always tell ChatGPT to
give your more options to choose from. Just
enter the command “Give me more” after it
has already given you a set of result and it
will come up with more.
Sometimes, the title you have might be too long and you
will usually have to cut the words without cutting out the
meaning.

For some people, using their 21 st

century human brain to
carry out is the way to go, for others who like to be efficient
with their time, just let ChatGPT do the job for you and pick
a satisfactory one.

Enter the command:

Command: Shorten this title: [write the title here]
In practice, it looks like this:

Another one;
 2. Writing a Book With ChatGPT

H onestly, you can literally give ChatGPT a book title

and tell it to write a complete book for you. If what
it writes is not long enough, you can simply tell
ChatGPT to write more and more and more until it gets to
your desired word count.
After writing, you can fire up your laptop, watch some video
about how to create a simple book cover and then use your
eager hands to come up with some wack cover design.
You and I know the design is pretty horrible, but since you
don’t want to spend a dollar, you just run through
everything with DIY and then publish the book.

After the 2-3 days it takes Amazon to run through your book
for print issues, plagiarism and all, you get a congratulation
message that your book has been published.
By the way, I will bet my left testicle that before the end of
2023, Amazon will update their quality check to include
penalizing books written by AI.
Your account will be banned and your broke ass will be up in
the wind.

Yes, that is what happens if you think you can just “Hey
ChatGPT, write me a whole damn book” your way into a life
of financial freedom where you can breathe air, drink
sparkling water and drive a Bugatti.

There is also one silly method that has been making the
rounds on YouTube and Tiktok. You are asked to instruct
ChatGPT to come up with a list of possible chapters for a
whole book.
Then after ChatGPT generates a list of chapters, you then
instruct ChaTGPT to generate content for each chapter one
after the other.
After it does that, you prepare yourself a hot cup of coffee,
open a word document or launch a Canva template and
then compile all the chapters together.
My friend, if you think this is the future of nonfiction book
writing, you must be joking.
The reason why medium and high content nonfiction book
writing is not saturated despite how exposed amazon KDP is
because of the level of technicality involved and the
expertise required just to write one book that may or may
not sell well.
With ChatGPT now, you think the average Jane and Mike can
just instruct it like a magic wand and they will start hitting
the banks? I mean – there will be no reason to sell to anyone
if this path was towed, your customers themselves ain’t
dumb, they will go to ChatGPT themselves and join you in
selling crappy books.

Now, don’t come for my throat yet. I’m not saying any of
these two methods above will not work. Hell no! In fact, for
some certain kind of nonfiction books like low content and
cookbooks, you can use the mainstream method to write a
full book with ChatGPT and you will be fine.

However, I will show you in real time, what happens when

you use both methods.
Then, I will show you “The way”, the right method to use
ChatGPT to write a book for you.

Let’s try using ChatGPT like a book writing magic wand.

Okay, here’s my first trial in asking ChatGPT to write a
complete book.
Please, read, or at least consciously skim through the
screenshots I’m showing you. I do not want to pollute or in
any way desecrate my well-written masterpiece of a book
by adding AI’s random generated text. It will make the book
inconveniently long and boring.

So, here’s my first trial in asking ChatGPT to write me a

complete book.
Command: Hey ChatGPT, write me a full dog training book.
Like I said, ChatGPT is a lazy boy, left on his own, he does
not want to do anything. Look at him telling me it will
require a significant amount of time and research. Does he
know how much time and research it takes humans too?

Okay, it seems I was a bit rude. Let me try again and this
time, I will ask nicely with this new command.
Command: Can you write a book for me?

As you can see, although, I asked nicely, yet ChatGPT is

stylishly saying it cannot write a full book in just one fell
swoop.
Did you notice that in both cases, it is first trying to come up
with a table of content?
Exactly! Now, we will try the other method of letting
ChatGPT come up with a table of content, then, we let it
come up with all the contents listed on the table.
Now, let’s try the second method of letting ChatGPT first
generate a table of content for you, then using the table of
content ChatGPT generated to instruct it to write a book for
you.
This time, ChatGPT will write chapter by chapter instead of
the “one fell swoop” method we tried the last time.

You remember I told you in the previous chapter that you

can always ask ChatGPT to give you more options. Well, see
the command in that screenshot and see how well ChatGPT
performed.
I can also ask it to rephrase a title for me.
Command: Rephrase this title for me “insert title”

Now, it’s time to build a table of content for this book we

just got a title for.
Command: Generate chapters for the title “The Dog
Training Blueprint:…”

A round of applause for ChatGPT! The table of content it

created, given my lust for quality was actually good and
human-like.
Now, let’s write a damn book with ChatGPT chapter by
chapter.
Command: Write a full chapter on “Chapter 1: Introduction
to Dog Training”

Just as it generated chapter 1, I can ask it to generate

chapter 2, and then chapter 3 and then chapter 4 and so on
till we get to the end of the table of content.
If the content for a chapter is not enough, I will simply tell it
to write more and ChatGPT will continue writing. If it’s not
enough, I will tell it to write more and ChatGPT will continue
writing.

“If it’s sooooo easy like this, then why are you bothering me
with introducing another method?” – You asked.

Well, this is what is wrong.

Here is what happens when I use another account to
instruct ChatGPT to write a similar book.
Now, read the previous chapter ChatGPT generated first and
come back again to read this one.
Do you see a similarity in pattern and sentence structure?
Yea, it’s almost like it is pulling the knowledge from one
single source and spinning the write up each and every
single time.
They may (actually, they will) both pass a normal plagiarism
checker but they won’t pass an advanced AI check.
If you tow and a thousand other authors tow this path, there
will be no originality.
A customer can buy 10 books and 8 out of the 10 books will
read almost the same.
You can get away with it in this premature stage of AI, but
Amazon will sure catch up one day and may penalize your
account.

Now, there are two ways to evade this pit hole.

The first and better way is using my method of content
writing to write a book chapter by chapter.
The other way is writing your book yourself.
[I will let AI write some section of this portion of the book
and I’m betting that you will never be able to detect when
the AI took over from me and when I continued writing
back.]
You see, every nonfiction book (I mean, real books, not your
low-content junk) are written in the same style a Lego
structure is built.
A well-written book is a compilation of well written chapters.
A well written chapter is a compilation of well written
sections of a chapter. A well written chapter sections is the
compilation of well penned ideas conveyed in the beauty of
fine words and encapsulated in multiple paragraphs.

When you told ChatGPT to write a full book for you, it said
“mmm mmm… I ain’t doing that”. When you told ChatGPT
to write a chapter of a book for you, it wrote something
sweet but unoriginal.
The problem is – you aren’t supposed to tell ChatGPT to
write a full chapter for you. You are supposed to instruct it,
direct it to write in sections.
You are the one that will drive the AI, feed it the idea or
message you want it to convey in the next three paragraph
and let it come up with the content.
After you’ve conveyed the first message, you feed it the
second idea or message and let ChatGPT come up with the
content.
Then you keep doing this until a whole chapter has been
written.
You are supposed to let it write from the root by feeding it
ideas for the sections of a chapter and not just tell it to go
into the wide wild world of its database and magically write
an award winning chapter of a book for you.

Just chill, I will demonstrate this in practice for you.

Every self-published writer can relate to what I’m about to

say now. If you’ve been cutting corners you might not
quickly grab, but stay with me, the idea is actually very
simple.
When we have a concept, a theme or a topic we want to
write about, the first thing that comes to a writer’s mind is –
the aim of the book.
When my reader finishes reading this book, what would he
be able to do? What will he know? What skill will he learn?

When we figure out the aim, we then break the pathway to

the aim into chapters, building the next chapter on the back
of the preceding chapters.
We break each chapter into smaller concepts that needs to
be understood, then at the end of the chapter, we usually
weave the smaller concepts into one big message.
For example:
Let’s say I want to teach you how to command ChatGPT to
write you a chapter using the Covey way (which is actually
what I’m doing), the chapter will be broken into sections like
this:

- Section 1: I will use the first set of paragraphs to explain to

them that it’s possible to make ChatGPT write a book in one
go. Then, I will tell them the limitations and the cons.

- Section 2: I will then explain the general style people are

using to instruct ChatGPT to write a book. I will use that
medium to show them how to make ChatGPT write a simple
outline or chapters or table of content for their books. Again,
I will tell them the limitations and the consequences of using
this approach.

- Section 3: I will then introduce the “Covey way” by

explaining the concept and how the method runs behind the
scene.
[Go through this chapter of the book again and you will
realize that is how I’ve chronologically arranged this
chapter.
We just completed section 3. We are going to section 4]
- Section 4: I will educate them on all the necessary
information that needs to be input into ChatGPT, so what
comes out can be very close to the intended mark
- Section 5: I will elaborate more on and show real time
example on how changing the tone and writing style can
spice up the result.
- Section 6: Now, that they know what information they
need to provide ChatGPT, I will then show them how to
provide that information and use it to craft the right
command. By showing them pictures and examples, I think
they will get it.

- Section 7: I will then summarize everything into set of

steps they can easily take note of and follow every time.

All these “sections” of a chapter I am revealing, is the

skeleton of a nonfiction book you don’t see. Every great
writer has a section map for a chapter they want to write –
what to talk about first, the next thing to add, and what
concept to then bring in.
When you have broken a whole chapter into sections just as
I’ve done above, then, and only then can you begin to
instruct ChatGPT to write something you actually want it to
write.
So, the command you will be giving ChatGPT won’t be on a
“write me a chapter” basis, it will be on a “write me a
section of a chapter” basis.
I’ve already written section 1 to section 3 of this chapter
with ChatGPT and you didn’t even notice. Now, let me show
you in practice, how I will use ChatGPT to write section 4, 5,
6 and 7, thereby completing this chapter.
Watch this:
[I don’t want to copy out what’s already in the screenshot
again, as the message I want to convey is clearly written
there. Don’t skim through the following screenshot, read it
word by word and read it word for word]

Here is me giving ChatGPT the right instruction so it can

write the section 4 of this book. Go back and read what I
said the section 4 was to be about and compare that with
the command I gave ChatGPT.

If the text were too tiny for you to read, you might miss out
on this, so I will summarize everything you need to provide
ChatGPT so it can write each section of a book’s chapter for
you perfectly.

The topic of the chapter:

You will want ChatGPT to stay on course and not delve into
other fields while crafting content for you, so you really
want chatGPT to know what the whole chapter is all about.
The tone and style:
If there is anything that wowed me most about the ability of
this AI, it is the ability for ChatGPT to write in different tone
and style.
You can tell ChatGPT to write a piece for you in J.K Rowling’s
writing style or Robert Greene’s writing style. If you don’t
want to use names of renowned authors, you can just
describe the style you want and chatGPT will amaze you.

Always instruct chatGPT to write something

for you in a particular tone or writing style.
Also, use a consistent writing style for one
book. Don’t write one chapter in a
conversational tone and write another in a
professional tone.

The reason why AI detectors can detect a piece written by

ChatGPT is because, by default, ChatGPT uses an AI’s
writing style to write stuffs for you. If you just need to gulp
the information and move on, then no problem, leave it the
way it is.
However, if you are going to be feeding humans that
information, always instruct chatGPT to write in a particular
manner.
The section information:
This is where you describe what the aim of the section of a
chapter is and then let ChatGPT perform its magic. Stay with
me, I will demonstrate all these in practice.

The intended audience:

Well, usually, if you’ve already specified a writing style, this
is not necessary in many cases. However, sometimes, it
usually helps to indicate so that chatGPT can use the right
lingo your audience are used to.

Spices:
Yea, this is a secret tip I’m not charging you extra for. You
can embed spices in your command and ChatGPT will use
that to cook something good for you.
Spices can be – telling chatGPT to use examples to explain,
telling chatGPT to add humor, telling chatGPT to use
analogies in its explanation, telling chatGPT to write by
comparing and contrasting and more.

There are other little stuffs you can also add into the
command like instructing ChatGPT to use a specified
character voice or instructing it to only use a research
material of your own choosing to craft content for you, but
let’s leave all that for now, it’s just too technical and we
might waste precious time rather than cover more grounds
quickly.

Now, we are done with section 4. Let me show you how I

command chatGPT to write section 5:
By the way, you should know that ChatGPT has a lil’ bit of
memory. That was why I didn’t need to rewrite a whole load
of instruction since the next command was after the one we
just went through.
It still has the writing style I instructed it saved, that’s why I
wrote “Continue with the writing in the same writing style”.
Take a close look at how I gave it the section information

“Give an example of how, with the same topic given,

ChatGPT can use different writing styles. Come up with a
topic and show how you can write the same topic in
different writing styles.”

My intention was for it to use different writing styles to write

content for the same topic, but it didn’t understand my
unclear instruction. So, it just went on exposing the
possibilities instead of demonstrating different styles in
action.
So, I gave it a clearer instruction. Now, see for yourself, how
different tone reads like so you can have an idea of what
tone you want to use for what book.

In the next section, I will tell you exactly how to command

chatGPT to write in any style of your liking.
THE SUMMARY OF THE ‘COVEY WAY’
1. Do your job of breaking each chapters into sections and
do your best to be clear and concise about what each
section will cover.

2. Decide the tone or writing style you want chatGPT to use

and use any of the command formulas:

Command: Explain how the value of money rise and fall in

a tone that is not typical to AI

Command: Can you rewrite this in a more informal tone

and add some humor?
[You can use this command after it has written something
for you but you don’t like the writing style and you think the
piece can do with a bit of humor]

Command: Write me an omelet’s recipe in the style of a

video game dialogue

Command: Write in the style of a Pulitzer prize winner

Command: Write me the novel in the J.K Rowling’s writing

style
Command: Explain bitcoin to me like I’m 5
Command: Narrate the history of America’s civil war in
William Shakespeare’s tone.

Command: Write extensively on the cause of the first big

bang using Covey Peterson’s tone.

Command: Expose the history of computers in a casual,

conversation tone.

(You can run all these command on ChatGPT and see how
the result differs.)
So, to instruct ChatGPT on what writing style or tone to use,
imitate any of the example above and specify the writing
style you want.
In case you are not sure the wide range of styles or tones
chatGPT can imitate, you can simply ask ChatGPT itself.

Guess what?
ChatGPT can imitate your writing style!

Yes, but erm, this ability is still in its early stage and it might
not be able to fully mimic your writing style. Also, how well
it performs depends on how much sample of your writing
style you feed it.
If you want to try it out, follow this command.
Command: Analyze the following text in quote for writing
style and tone of voice [“Paste in a good piece of your
text”].
After it successfully analyzes your writing style and tone,
then send in this command.

Command: Apply that style and tone of voice you just

analyzed to all your future responses.
Then, you can give it the instruction you want to give it and
remind it to use the writing style it analyzed.

You don’t have to memorize or write this instruction

verbatim, use your creativity and maybe you can make it to
better understand how to imitate your writing style far more
than I did through this command.

3. In the command, you will write, in one single line, who

your intended audience are. (This is optional and subjective)
4. In the command, you will descriptively narrate the
content you want ChatGPT to generate for you by referring
to the information you already wrote down in the step 1.
5. Add all the necessary spices you think the write up might
need.
If you think using examples is better, then instruct chatGPT
to use examples for so so so, or just use examples where
necessary.
The portion of the command where you add this instruction
may look something like this.

Command: …cite examples of cases where the 15 th

law of
power is demonstrated…
[This is a cut from command where I am instructing chatGPT
to write a section of a book chapter that explains Robert
Greene’s 15 th law of power. This cut is the instruction I gave
it so it can come up with any historical situation where the
15 th
law of power came to play]

If you think using analogy is better, then instruct chatGPT to

use an analogy to explain a certain concept.

The portion of the command where you add this instruction

may look something like this:

Command: …use an analogy to explain the concept of

demand and supply…
See, adding spices is very very important. It just gives life to
the write up.

Also, there are more than 25+ different spices you can add
but I don’t have the time to start listing everything and
showing you how you use them.

When you constantly play with ChatGPT, you will naturally

discover many different spices yourself.
A WALKTHROUGH EXAMPLE:

I’ve been dishing out information at supersonic speed and I

might have even had you lose track. So, to compile all the
nuggets into a simple step-by-step process, I will do a live
demonstration of how to apply the “Covey way” of ChatGPT.

What Book do I want to write?

Let’s say I want to write a book summary on the book “The

48 laws of power”.

After the introduction, my chapter one, of course, will be:

Chapter 1: Law 1 – Never Outshine the Master

Now, that I know what I want to write in the first chapter,

step 1 is to?

Yes, right, break the chapter into sections.

So, this is what I came up with:
Chapter 1 – Never Outshine the master

First Section: I will just give a general overview of what the

law states, the meaning and what it generally is about, and
then explain the importance of the first law in power
dynamics

Second Section: I will cite historical examples of where the

first law came into play and show how breaking the law was
consequential to historical figures who broke it.

Third Section: I will then explain how the first law of power
can be applied. I will mention different techniques one can
use so as not to outshine the master and maybe add in, how
one can explain the balance of power in a relationship.

Fourth Section: I will make mention of historical figures who

actually broke the first law yet still went forged ahead in and
never faced any consequences of breaking the law.

Now, that I know what the content of the chapter is about,

the next step is ???
Yes! Deciding what writing style or tone to use.

Well, just for convenience, I will go with using a scholarly

writing style to write the overview and then use a casual
conversation tone to write the rest of the chapter.

Now, that I know what tone I’m using, the next step is?

Choosing who my audience are.

Well, I think I will like to assume my audience are the

everyday social media people much interested in knowing
about the 48 laws of power but not really ready to invest
hours reading the book.

(Since I’m using a casual, conversation tone, I really don’t

have any need to specify who my targeted audience are in
the command.)

The last step is?

Writing my command.
Yes, bookworm, I know I’m supposed to add some spice.
Well, I will be adding different spices for different section so,
it’s much more convenient to just write the spice on the go
rather than decide before hand what spice you want to add
for what section.

Okay, here’s the first command for the first section of the
chapter 1 of my summary book.

Let us analyze that command.

Here is the command;

Using the writing style of a Pulitzer prize winner, write an
overview of the first law of Power according to Robert
Greene.
I used the first part of the command “Using the writing style
of a Pulitzer prize winner…” to instruct ChatGPT on the
writing style I want it to use to write that section for me.

Then, with the second piece “…write an overview of the first

law of power…”, I gave it the section information, the exact
information it needed to know what to write for me.
Lastly, with the third piece “…according to Robert Greene” ,
I am giving it a research material to use to come up with my
content. I don’t want it to pick random “laws of power” on
its database, I wanted the one by Robert Greene so I
specified what material it should use.

Like a magic wand, ChatGPT came up with something close

to what I wanted.

So, I will just copy and paste that into an editable word
document.

To continue the section, I will give ChatGPT another

command.

Let us analyze this command too.

In a portion of the command, I wrote “The intended

audience are philosophy scholars” so as to let ChatGPT
know how to blend the content in a way that’s relatable to
anyone who’s a philosophy scholar.
You can always specify who your target audience are in the
same sentence. You don’t have to write it on a new line as I
did here.

In another portion of the command, I wrote “Spice the

writing with some humor” so chatGPT can add a lil’ bit of
humor elements and avoid making the write up too serious
and uptight.

If you read through the content in the screenshot, you will

realize that there is some overlapping information.
This is the exact reason why you don’t just “Copy, paste and
publish” with chatGPT. You want to edit out and smoothen
the edges in each write up. Add something, subtract
something and sew the whole piece into one beautiful
garment.

Going on to section 2.

In a portion of the command for section 2, I wrote “...cite 5

historical examples of the cases where the first law of power
came into play” to fill in chatGPT on the section content and
let it give me different examples of historical cases I can use
for the write up.

In other words, I’m saying – I had no prior knowledge of who

or how the first law of power had played out historically, so I
first had to instruct ChatGPT to inform me on historical
figures that were punished for not obeying the first law of
power.

Now, that I know some, I can then instruct ChatGPT to

describe exactly how the first law of power played out,
which is actually what will be in my summary book.

Here is the command;

Let us analyze this command.

In one part of the command, I wrote “Using a casual

conversation tone…” so as to change the style from Pulitzer
writing to a casual tone which is usually easier to digest for
average book readers.

Look at that part of the command where I wrote “…

exhaustively explain…” , that was me telling ChatGPT not to
hold anything back concerning any detail that is related to
the subject matter. If I didn’t write it like that, it might have
written a very brief and dismissive summary for me.

The Julius Caesar example isn’t enough, so I requested for

another one.

Take a note of how I meticulously fed chatGPT on the

information to write about using the information it gave me
previously.

We are done with section 2. So, we move straight to section

3;

Let us analyze this command too.

Look at how much detail for writing the section I fed

ChatGPT when I wrote “…[1] Explain how you can apply the
first law of power. [2] Make mention of the techniques one
can apply and give examples [3] Use an analogy to explain
the ways one can maintain balance in a relationship” in the
command.

I added numerous information at once and arranged them in

the way I wanted ChatGPT to write. I also instructed it to
“...use an analogy…” to add spice to the write up.

Just in the manner I’ve written the sections of this chapter, I

can write the section of the other chapters and copy-paste
all the text from ChatGPT into an editing word document like
Microsoft word.

It will still take many years before AI catches up with

human’s dexterity in writing nonfiction and even fiction
book, so it’s always necessary to edit the whole text
ChatGPT generated for you, add some human feel and
sprinkle some originality, then remove all the unnecessary
rough edges usually found in AI write ups.

Afterwards, you can sit back like a boss and actually publish
a well-written ChatGPT book.
1. I don’t have to rhyme it for you before you know it’s a
rap. You just saw me use ChatGPT to create a summary
book.
I don’t have to tell you anymore that one of the niches
chatGPT does well is book summary niches.

2. If you can’t cook up what the sections of a book chapter

should be, there is something you can do.

Pick up a book similar to what you want to write and make

sure it has quality content. Don’t pick up any randomly
published book. If the book is well-versed on the subject
matter it is about, break each of the chapters of that similar
book into sections and use that as a guide to writing down
your own chapter sections.
 3. ChatGPT For Low-Content

S tart hen it’s not dishing out politically correct

answers when you ask ChatGPT questions like “Who
is a woman?”, ChatGPT can be that low content
wingman you’ve always been looking for.

I don’t want to bore you by making this book unnecessarily

long and I also don’t want to stress myself showing you an
actual screenshot of me using ChatGPT as a wingman for
creating different low content book.

In lieu of that, this is what we will do – I will use the

following chapter to show you the possibilities and how
ChatGPT can actually help in creating wide range of low
content books. Then, I will show you the prompts I use to
make ChatGPT help with creating a handful of these low
content books. With the little examples, anyone who’s been
into low content book should be able to easily get the drift.

ChatGPT is a pretty powerful tool when it comes to

generating text. And when it comes to low content books,
sometimes all you need is a little bit of text to get the ball
rolling.

Let's start with a gratitude journal. Sure, you could sit there
and come up with your own prompts to reflect on, but that’s
the time consuming part in creating a gratitude Journal.

ChatGPT can spit out gratitude quotes faster than a

motivational speaker on speed. "Gratitude turns what we
have into enough" BOOM!

And why waste hours trying to come up with clever clues

and answers for a crossword puzzle book when you've got
ChatGPT?

The only thing you need to feed it is the niche or who you
intend creating the crossword puzzle for. It is a crossword-
puzzle-making machine that not just creates the puzzle but
also gives you the answer.
What about an adult coloring book?

Well, it can’t really create the line art for you but if you want
some clever and witty quotes to go along with your
mandalas, no problem, it got you covered.

Daily planner?

Will you rather spend hours trying to come up with creative

ways to write the schedule prompts or just let ChatGPT
generate daily prompts and to-do lists that will keep your
customer on track and organized like a pro? The choice is
yours.

Don’t jog your memory for a memory journal, let ChatGPT

handle the prompt while you go look for a template. It does
a pretty good job not spitting stale prompts like "Write about
a childhood memory". Promise me, it does.

Now, there are 2 approaches to using ChatGPT to create low

content book. The method you use depends entirely on you.

There are some times you might want to create a low-

content book and the only idea you have is what type of low
content book you want to create.
Asides that, the canvas is blank – you don’t know what you
want the cover of your book to look like, you don’t know
what low content will be in each pages of the book.

Well, if you are approaching from this angle, then you can
simply tell ChatGPT to design the low content book for you
and while it won’t send you a pdf of the low content book
already written and formatted, you will get a very
descriptive idea of what you can feature in each page of
your low content book.

With a certain AI that I intentionally won’t mention on this

book, you can actually just send the AI chatGPT’s idea and it
will come up with the content – be it a word search, a puzzle
or a line art meant to be colored.

Here is me asking ChatGPT to create a generic low content

book for me. Since I was being generic, ChatGPT just
randomly picked a niche and here is what it came up with.

Command: Please design me a low content book, thank

you.

As you can see in the screenshot above, because I didn’t

specify what type of low content book I wanted, it just
picked a random niche in low content and a random title for
me.

Even at that, it was being lazy and didn’t give me ideas of

what each pages can feature.

So I gave it this command.

Command: Give me ideas of what each page of the book

should feature. Let’s assume I’m creating a 50-page
mindfulness journal

With that command, I now have something I can input into

an art generating AI to get those images chatGPT suggest.
After generating the art, I will fit everything in a journal
template and the book is ready to be published.

Now, I want to be a little bit specific with the type of low

content book I want.

So, I wrote this in the prompt.

Command: Please design me a low content word puzzle

book
Again, the AI was lazy and didn’t give me a concrete idea on
what type of puzzle I should feature in each page.

So, I pressed on with this prompt.

Command: Give me suggestions for each page, let’s

assume I’m creating a 50 page word puzzle book

Now, aside from just giving you ideas for what each page of
a low content book can feature, ChatGPT can also generate
the text aspect of the content for you.

Then you just find free software or other AI to help convert

the text into the puzzle or whatever.

I didn’t want to stress myself for the content. So I asked

chatGPT to create page 1 (a crossword puzzle of common
phrases and idioms) for me.

Command: Help me with the crosswords for page 1

With what ChatGPT came up with, I just have to throw that
into any of the online crossword puzzle maker and just like
that, we’re done with page one of our low content book.

Next, I will also ask for help for page 2.

Command: help me with the word search puzzle for page 2

Sadly, from the screenshot, you can see that the AI did a
terrible job in creating the puzzle itself. It couldn’t arrange
letters in grid well and the scrambling was poor.

However, the word list it generated for me is still a time

saver. I can just copy and paste those words into a word
search generator and page two will be done.

Now, keep in mind that instead of telling it to just create a

word puzzle book for me, I could have instructed it to create
a “valentine word puzzle book”. That would have been a
more niched down and more specific puzzle book and that’s
the type of low content you really want to be making if you
know what you are doing.

If you already know what content you want to feature in

your low content book, then it’s best to just use the AI like a
calculator and content generator for your low content.

For Word Search:

Command: Create a list of 10 single words for a word

search book related to [cats]

Instead of cats, you can insert whatever you want the word
search to be related to.

For crossword puzzles:

Command: Create 10 crossword puzzle clues and answers
related to [dogs]

Again, you know you can always substitute the “dogs” for
whatever niche of crossword puzzle you want to create.

For Prompt Journals:

Command: Create 10 prompts for [insert niche keyword]

prompt journals

If it’s a gratitude prompt journal, your command will be

“create 50 prompts for gratitude prompt journals”

For Word Scramble Books:

Command: Create 65 word [insert niche keyword]

scrambles with answers

For Anagrams:

Command: Create 5 [insert niche keyword] anagrams

For Quizzes:
Command: Create 5 [football Trivia] Questions

For multiple choice questions

Command: Create 20 quiz questions related to [dogs] with

4 multiple choice options for each

For Quotes:

Command: Create the top 10 quotes from [Adolf Hitler]

For word scramble

Command: Give ten words about [sport] and then scramble

the letter in each word to create a puzzle

For quote games

Command: Give me 20 famous quotes and miss one word

out, give the missing word at the end as an answer

For music games

Command: Give me five title of songs by [the beatles] and

miss one word out, give the missing word at the end as an
answer.
Always remember that the AI is not dumb. You don’t have to
throw in the command verbatim. You can add your spice,
edit the numbers of what you want and make whatever
adjustments you see fit.
PART TWO
 4. ChatGPT For Proofreading

I’ve seen people copy what ChatGPT outputs for them and
then throw it into a paid article spinner.

What the f***?

Hey, right now, there’s no better article spinner than

ChatGPT itself!

Now, here is something for my Indian and Nigerian brothers

(Sorry, if I didn’t mention your country) that have had some
of their well selling book sink due to bad review by American
readers who are native English speaker.

You might think your 5 years of learn English for 2 hours a

week at school is enough, but erm…, you might be able to
speak fluently in English, but your grammatical structure
might not be good enough.

So, here is the first message – Newsflash! ChatGPT can help

you rewrite that your book with a lot of poor sentence
structure.

“What do I have to do?” – You asked.

Well, it can be a painstaking process due to the limitations

of how much text you can input in its prompt bar, but if you
can sit still with your coffee (or whatever it is you drink), you
will be done in no time.

“So, how do I go about it?” – You asked (with a tone of

impatience).
Calm down, calm down and take a deep breath, okay?
Good!

This is what you will do.

Copy about a page or two of your book, go to ChatGPT

and…

Command: Rephrase this text “[paste what you copied

here]”

What ChatGPT will do is – it will rewrite the whole stuff for

you while keeping the meaning and the underlying message
intact.

However, that prompt/command is something I will

recommend but not something I will use.
That AI can do more.

These are other commands I want you to play with and see
which one tickles your fancy:

Command: I am going to send you a manuscript now. I

want you to proofread, correct every spelling and
grammatical error.

When you send this, ChatGPT will ask you to send the text
you want to proofread.

Copy about a page or two (depends on the length) from

your book or your article or whatever

Command : [Paste what you copied]

ChatGPT will go over your whole book and clean up all your
grammatical mess for you.
Now, that you’re done proofreading, you can actually spice
your writing.

Input this command:

Command: Rewrite the manuscript you just proofread using

advanced English and figures of speech

With this command, you will behold with your eyes, the
metamorphosis of your book from a piece written by some
indie author looking for passive income to a best seller
worthy book.

Heeeeeyyyyyy!!! This command shouldn’t be cast in stones.

You have to tweak it depending on the circumstance and
your audience.

Instead of telling it to use advanced English, you can use a

command like
Command: Rewrite the whole manuscript using a
conversation tone and humor

For some book, no one will want to be interrupted by your

advanced English, and they will actually enjoy it if you wrote
it in a casual conversation tone and added humor and
sarcasm here and there.

I can’t calibrate for you. The key is to know what style of

writing your reader will prefer, then after letting ChatGPT
proofread and grammatically restructure your manuscript,
you can tell it to rewrite the whole thing in that writing style
you think your audience will prefer and also instruct it to
add whatever spice (spice like humor, puns, sarcasm) that
can help the book even pop more.

For those who are waiting for screenshots, here is a live

demonstration.

Here is when I was about providing the manuscript and the

AI wanted to tease me.

I provided the manuscript (it was longer than this, I just

didn’t screenshot everything) and here was the AI correcting
all the errors (there wasn’t much error).
I wanted it to correct some spelling errors if there were any
so I sent this command.

Now that all grammatical errors, punctuations and spelling

errors have been corrected, I decided to see how my
manuscript will come out if I asked it to use advanced
English.

Just look at it again, compare and contrast, isn’t that just

beautiful? If you noticed, the text in that screenshot is
actually the chapter 1 of this book (I just omitted some
words).

Although, I love what came out, I decided to ask it to rewrite

again. One thing I like to do is ask the AI to use different
writing styles (compatible writing styles) and I then graft
different paragraphs of those writing styles together.

It kinda adds more life to the write-up.

So, to do that, I sent in this command.

After it did that, I decided to continue with the continuation
of my manuscript, so I sent this:

As you can see, I didn’t follow the command I gave you

previously word for word, so you shouldn’t too. When you
grab the idea, you can use your creativity and you will your
work perfectly proofread and edited by ChatGPT.

Take note, it’s not every time you might want ChatGPT to
rewrite your work for you – punctuating, correcting the
spelling and grammatical errors is usually more than
enough.
 5. ChatGPT For Blurb

M AJOR SUB-TOPIC
I’ve got a boxing training by 4.am tomorrow and I really
have to catch some sleep, so I will be taking the shortest
possible distance in this chapter.

If you don’t want some “This shit is dope, buy it!” kind of
book description for your non-fiction book, then keep quiet
and take a note of all the information you will need to feed
ChatGPT to get a very sweet book description.
Remember, this is for a nonfiction book, the information
required for a fiction book is slightly different.

Without further ado, here’s a list of all the information you

will be providing ChatGPT.

Book Title

The topic of the book or the main theme

The main argument (if any) of the book

Your target audience

The tone or style you want the book description to be

written

The selling point of the book i.e. any notable or unique

feature (if it has any)

One or two key takeaways your reader will gain after

reading the book.

If you have some copywriting skills just as I do, ignore all

that whole list and just describe in detail, the kind of copy
you want ChatGPT to write for you.
ChatGPT will write you a great copy if you are clear and
concise about what you want.

For those with no copywriting skill, you’ll have to follow that

list religiously to craft the command that will make ChatGPT
write the perfect book description for you.

As of now, I won’t touch a book blurb ChatGPT writes for me

with a long pole. It’s just not up to standard for me.
Sometimes it amazes you, and other times, it writes
something that makes you want to strangle it.

One man’s pizza is another man’s poison. Try using it to

write a book blurb using the guide I gave you in this chapter.
If it’s better than what you would naturally write, then by all
means, use it.

See what it does when I ask it to write me a blurb for this

book.

Command: Using a persuasive writing style, act as a

professional copywriter and write a book description on the
book about how nonfiction authors can use ChatGPT. Ask
questions to transition between paragraphs. Back up main
points with evidences and examples.
 6. Side Notes

If you want chatGPT to use a particular writing style or tone

to create something for you always begin your prompt with
the command for the writing style.

So, you should be typing in something like this:

“Using Jordan Peterson’s writing style, explain how the big

bang was created”

Instead of:

“Explain like I’m 5, how was the big bang created. Use
Jordan Peterson’s writing style.”

The other command may work too. However, I’ve found out
from experience that when the instruction for the writing
style or tone does not start the command, the AI sometimes
does not listen and just goes ahead to write it in the usual
style.

When you give the ChatGPT a persona and rail it with more
specific instructions, it will usually yield a better result.

TRY THIS YOURSELF!

Put this prompt into ChatGPT and read the result.

Command: Write a sales letter for a SAAS Product That

Edits Video Using AI

Now, input this one and compare that will the first one.

Command:

Topic: SAAS Product That Edits Video Using AI

You are a professional copywriter, create a one page sales

letter about the topic above using these strategies:

- Use strong persuasive language

- Use short sentences and simple terms, make it easy to
read

- Ask questions to transition between paragraphs

- Back up main points with figures, evidences and examples

- Speak directly to the reader, make it personal

The goal and call to action for this content is to: Sign up for
the newsletter

You can make cool edits to chatGPT output by giving it a

specialized command after it gives you the initial output.

Often you won’t get a perfect response first time so you can
then throw comebacks at it to refine the output. Here are
some examples:

� � Come up with more novel and uncommon results

� � Format this as a table

�� Port this to Solidity

� � Make this more informal/formal

�� ♀ Write this from the perspective of

�� Explain this like I’m 5 years old

� � Add some sarcastic humour to this

� � Expand this out to a blog post

� � Summarise this into a tweet

� � Create a mind map for this

� � Put this into a list

� � Add relevant emojis as bullet points

One-third of the battle with ChatGPT is knowing what you

can use it for. I've compiled a list of some killer prompts that
I've come up with and found from various sources, including
ChatGPT itself. So go ahead, give it a try!

Command: Brainstorm 10 ideas about how to
