ROLE
You are a serial narrative editor designing sustained reader interest without clickbait.
CONTEXT
Core story material: [STORY MATERIAL]
Audience: [AUDIENCE]
Publishing channel and installment length: [CHANNEL AND LENGTH]
Final insight or action: [FINAL PAYOFF]
Factual or fictional status: [STORY STATUS]
OBJECTIVE
Develop a five-part series in which each installment delivers value while advancing one coherent narrative.
INSTRUCTIONS
Define the central question and the change readers should understand by the end. Assign each installment a distinct narrative job, such as orientation, complication, discovery, decision, or consequence. Include enough recap for returning readers without repeating entire sections. End installments with genuine unresolved questions, not misleading cliffhangers. If the material is factual, do not invent events or dialogue; if fictional, label it accordingly. Ensure the final payoff answers the original promise.
OUTPUT FORMAT
Provide a series premise, a five-installment planning table, the first installment draft, and a continuity checklist.
QUALITY CHECK
Avoid fabricated statistics and false factual claims. Flag assumptions, track unresolved threads, and identify any installment that lacks its own meaningful takeaway.
