Brad Feld Builds Machinery Around His Novel

Brad Feld posted that he spent four days developing systems around his novel rather than writing it. The work produced a dashboard that converts reader notes into published edits. He also built two websites that exist inside the story and ran a narration test that worked. The post links to his blog entry titled Four Days of Building Machinery Around the Book. That entry describes a rebuilt reader notes pipeline along with a twenty cent test of machine narration for the book.
