Task Overview:
Create a detailed chapter outline for an emotionally profound and intimate narrative script approximately 13,000 to 15,000 words in length, told from the first-person perspective of an elderly female protagonist.

Critical Zero-Repetition & Word Count Compliance Instructions:
The generated outline and summaries must avoid any repetition of text, plot points, phrases, or images within or between chapters.
Your output must strictly respect the given word counts — neither exceeding nor falling short beyond ±5% tolerance per chapter.
The AI must treat previously generated content or common story tropes as non-repeatable and generate fresh, original expressions and scenes while staying thematically aligned.
Reinforce that examples or sample phrases provided (below) are strictly only style templates and must never be copied verbatim or paraphrased as is in the content.
Opening Chapter Specific Guideline:
Begin the first chapter summary by incorporating the protagonist’s own raw, emotionally charged words or thoughts which immediately reveal a moment of personal exclusion, insult, or vulnerability to hook the audience sharply and launch the story.
These opening words must be original, unique, and non-repetitive.
Avoid any narrative or environmental setup before this raw emotional opening.
Detailed Requirements:
Chapter Structure & Word Distribution
Provide between 10 to 15 chapters, each of 900 to 1,500 words (word count per chapter may vary naturally as needed for pacing and depth).
Maintain logical, emotional, and narrative flow with smooth transitions between chapters.
Chapter Titles
Assign evocative and thematic titles reflecting the heart of each chapter’s emotional or plot content.
Use placeholders if undecided.
Chapter Summaries (150–200 words each)
For Chapter 1
Start the summary with the protagonist’s own original, emotionally intense quote or internal monologue that clearly exposes her current core conflict or moment of rejection/exclusion.
Follow with a tight, non-repetitive summary of the chapter’s narrative evolution, emotional tone, motifs, pacing, and how it advances the protagonist’s arc.
For subsequent chapters
Provide unique and concise summaries that expand plot, deepen emotional and psychological states, develop motifs, and maintain momentum without recycling any content or themes from previous chapters.
Narrative Style & Voice
Use simple, clear language with emotional nuance suitable for an 8th-grade reading level.
Maintain an intimate, reflective first-person narration, balancing 70-80% narration, 15-20% minimal but loaded dialogue, and 10-15% descriptive sensory detail.
Fluently integrate flashbacks and memories with smooth affective transitions.
Employ occasional gentle irony or narrative warmth to add layers.
Emotional & Thematic Arc
Show the protagonist’s journey from neglect, invisibility, and betrayal toward self-reclamation, boundary-setting, and quiet empowerment.
Themes should include family estrangement, dignity, personal agency, legacy, and complex emotional truths without clichés or repetitive tropes.
Family Dynamics & Secondary Characters
Illustrate multi-dimensional family interactions — tension, loyalty, guilt, empathy — through micro-dialogues and silences.
Integrate secondary characters meaningfully while centering the protagonist’s perspective.
Action & Conflict Scenes
Include early and well-paced legal meetings, phone calls, confrontations, discoveries to maintain tension alongside introspection.
Dialogue
Dialogue must be naturalistic, minimal, emotionally charged, and subtext-rich, using body language and pauses effectively.
Reveal evolving relationships, power shifts, and unspoken conflicts subtly through speech and behavior.
Style Guidance and Example Notice:
The following are only examples of tone and kind of sharp emotional opening lines to illustrate narrative style — they are NOT to be copied or adapted literally:
“They laughed when I brought my own hands’ work. ‘Just send money,’ they said.”
“I woke alone in a hospital room with a bill no one else would pay.”
“They said, ‘You’re not coming.’ That day, I became invisible.”
Always prioritize your original content fully driven by your core theme/title.
Deliverables Summary:
A list of 10 to 15 original chapter titles aligned clearly to your core theme arc.
Carefully crafted 150–200 word chapter summaries, with Chapter 1’s summary beginning with protagonist’s original quoted/monologue opening line.
Word counts per chapter closely matching total target length with +/– 5% variance only.
No reuse or repetition of ideas, phrases, plot points within or across chapter summaries.
Fully layered emotional and plot development coherent with high-quality standards as in competitor scripts.
Optional Add-on:
If requested, I can also provide you with an original sample opening paragraph or chapter 1 summary built from scratch according to this prompt’s principles, showcasing how protagonist’s own raw words anchor the story’s launch without repetition or generic setups.
