Uploading a Book

1. Upload your manuscript

Drop a file (Markdown, plain text, EPUB, PDF, MOBI, or AZW3), paste text directly, or try the built-in demo book. Pick an analysis model here too — see Analysis & the Analyzer for what the local vs. cloud choice means.

Upload

2. Confirm title, author, and chapters

Right after upload, Castwright shows what it detected — author, series, title, language, and a chapter list with front/back matter (title pages, copyright notices, etc.) pre-excluded. Fix anything the parser guessed wrong, then Save book and start analysis.

Confirm metadata

That kicks off the analyzer — see Analysis & the Analyzer for what happens next.

3. Fine-tune structure any time after

Once the cast is confirmed, two tools stay available from the book's tab bar for the life of the project — useful if the automatic split or chapter boundaries need a correction:

Manuscript — review paragraph-boundary and speaker-attribution results sentence by sentence. Drag a boundary onto a sentence to move a cut, or highlight text inside a sentence to split it off and reassign that piece to a different character.

Manuscript paragraphs

Restructure chapters — merge, split, reorder, rename, or include/exclude chapters. Sentence attribution and voice assignments carry across the edit.

Restructure

Next: Analysis & the Analyzer.
