Load this when you're writing or revising fiction at the sentence and paragraph level. It covers the mechanics that pull readers into narrative prose: psychic distance, free indirect discourse, sentence rhythm, sensory grounding, interiority. The guidance is craft-focused rather than project-specific, so you'd pair it with style files that carry your actual voice. Useful for getting past the flat middle-distance problem where AI prose sits by default, close enough to seem personal but too safe to actually feel intimate. Think of it as the technical patterns underneath good fiction writing, the stuff that makes prose feel immersive regardless of genre or voice.
