Editorial tools

Dear SudoWrite, for longer stories it would be incredibly beneficial to have some tools available to help with consistency.

Just a few I can think of:

  • echo analysis; does the story, world or character echo previous events (is a wound still of influence, clothing still torn, a black eye still unusable);

  • mirror analysis: does a character clearly mirror his previous behavior consistenly;

  • POV audit: is the POV of a chapter clear, concise and structured;

  • continuity tracker; has the ration been eaten, is the sword still blunt, is the robe indeed red?

Etcetera. These would really help as part of the Story Bible.

I have tried using chat to let the tool read multiple chapters and do these across pages, but to no avail. It only wants to work with pasted text…
