Romance novelist Coral Hart has published 371 books in 20 months using AI, selling over a million copies and clearing $1M+ this year. Her stack: she lays out concept, style, characters and chapter outlines herself, then routes each job to the best-suited model — ChatGPT for dialogue, Claude for structure, Grok for scenes Claude refuses. She mapped clear model limits: some refuse explicit content, Grok/NovelAI produce graphic but emotionally flat prose, Claude is elegant yet "terrible at sexy banter." She went from 10-12 books a year to 200+, self-published on Amazon; per NYT, a full novel once took 45 minutes.
