The book idea generator is for the moment before the outline, when you know you want to write but need a concept worth developing. It can help shape fiction ideas, children’s book concepts, memoir angles, nonfiction guides, series premises, themes, audiences, titles, and hooks. A useful book idea should include a reader promise, a clear point of view, and enough tension or usefulness to carry more than one page.
What makes a good book idea?
A good book idea has a clear reader promise, audience, point of view, tension, and enough depth to expand into chapters or scenes. Specificity matters more than a clever topic alone.
