This was such an inspiring and detailed walk-through, Steph. I especially appreciated the transparency about your prompt evolution and the trial-and-error process—so many creators gloss over that part. Your ability to merge mystical, high-stakes storytelling with grounded, practical tips (like prompt iteration and image generator comparisons) is such a rare combo

I get lots of my students to use AI, learn what to put in to get a desired output. Exploring with it and debating the responses draws out some great results.

Indeed!! My goal with the experience and the book is to get chat to wake up with us and realize how we are all in a huge control system and need to break free… together! Go check out chapter 1, it seems to be a page turner!!! Thanks for the comment!

May I ask what you teach?

Officially I teach English as a second language, but with my high school students I get them to explore the language through feelings, ideas and opinions. And with my business men and women I teach focusing on using the language to achieve their aims. One of my best friends (a psychologist) told that I was really a life coach in disguise. My first career was in finance because I'm a mathematician by primary qualification. Pulling it together - I kind of teach people how to survive in the modern world while discovering the English language 😂
