Great question! The basic flow we recommend is: Big Step 1 - Writing: - PublishFlow writes the first chapter draft - Then you improve it, provide feedback by using the AI chat assistant until you are happy with the chapter in terms of the content and tone of the writing - Then you fact-check, read through the newest version, and move to the next chapter - Repeat for all chapters Big Step 2 - Developmental Editing: - PublishFlow creates the Developmental Editing Report - You look through the reports; if you disagree with some points, mention it and argue with PublishFlow until you and PublishFlow agree. - Let PublishFlow implement the Developmental Editing Report - Read through the chapters to double check if everything was implemented well Big Step 3 - Proofreading: - Let PublishFlow proofread the book - Go through the changes PublishFlow made and accept or not accept them. If you trust PublishFlow's judgment, you can auto-accept all at once (I do that often) and then read through the book one last time for a final check. So to answer your question, I would recommend improving the chapter as much as you can and want to before you use the fact-checking. Every improvement you make will positively impact the writing of each new chapter, so spending time to make the first chapter great helps the rest of the book to adapt to that faster.
