Plot Holes in the Retention Funnel

  • Bhaskar worries about chapter 9 forgetting chapter 8's trauma, while hoping churned users remember to return after chapter 1.
  • Bhaskar critiques editors who slash manuscripts by 30%, preferring a meticulous qualitative diagnosis before cutting anything.

I was getting sign-ups but almost nobody returned. The problem was not acquisition. I have been building an AI writing studio for novelists. People were visiting, creating accounts and sometimes importing manuscripts, but very few returned. Initially, I assumed the positioning
