Steven Johnson uses Pinker's Sense of Style as an on-demand editor in NotebookLM
stevenbjohnson · x · 2026-09-05
Steven Johnson shares his writing workflow: adding Steven Pinker's The Sense of Style to every writing-project notebook and requesting a "Pinker edit" on each draft — advice he doesn't always agree with but finds consistently productive. Google is giving away the book (US users, limited time, one title among 20) and compensating authors/publishers, so readers can both read it and use it as an on-demand editor in NotebookLM.
