Your Writing, Explored #
Ever wonder what themes run through your writing? Want a quick summary? Curious what your subconscious might be saying?
Chat With Your Text lets you ask questions about your writing and get thoughtful AI responses.
How to Use It #
- Open your story in the Editor
- Select the section you want to check
- Click on the AI Tools icon
- Click Chat with Text
- Type your questions and press Enter
The Chat Panel #
A split panel opens:
- Left side — Your text (you can still edit it here)
- Right side — The chat interface
Ask questions, get answers. It’s like having a thoughtful reader available instantly.
Questions You Can Ask #
Summarization
- “Summarize this in one paragraph”
- “What are the main points?”
- “Give me a one-sentence version”
Analysis
- “What themes appear in this writing?”
- “What emotions are expressed here?”
- “What patterns do you notice?”
Exploration
- “What questions does this raise?”
- “What might happen next?”
- “What’s left unsaid?”
Improvement
- “How could I make this clearer?”
- “What’s working well here?”
- “Are there any inconsistencies?”
Fun
- “If this were a movie, what genre would it be?”
- “What would a reader remember most?”

Tips for Good Questions #
- Be specific — “What’s the mood?” works better than “What do you think?”
- Ask one thing at a time — Multi-part questions get muddled answers
- Try different angles — If one question doesn’t help, rephrase it
- Use it for reflection — The AI might notice things you missed

You can edit your text in the left panel while chatting. Changes save automatically. The AI will consider your updated text for future questions.

The AI is a thinking partner, not a replacement for your own judgment. Use it to spark ideas and gain perspective.
