About Story Hacker AI

Members get Story Hacker OS, a writing tool, along with step-by-step guides to publishing on Amazon and branding to a genre, more than 200 genre guides, more than 20 AI automations and weekly live calls with Hamilton and other book experts.[1] The Story Hacker site adds Hamilton's AI courses, frameworks and prompt library, and one of his frameworks is the 40 Chapter Plot Module, a template that walks writers through each step of a story.[2][3]

Hamilton began focusing on AI for creative writing in March 2023, after seeing too few resources for authors using it, and previously worked as content manager at Kindlepreneur.[3] He also runs StorytellingDB, a site on storytelling techniques, mythology, timelines and reading orders, and pulp fiction, and the MythHQ and LoreTV brands, under Myth HQ LLC.[4]

The listing offers a 7-day free trial, lets members cancel anytime, and promises members who put in the work that they will finish a first book in 90 days or get their money back.[1] The Story Hacker AI terms describe a subscription billed monthly until cancelled, allow a full refund request within 30 days of the initial purchase, and make personal coaching calls non-refundable once they have taken place.[5] The terms also state that no guarantees are made on individual results.[5]
