• A follow-up conversation: Ghostwriter asks at most three questions when it needs facts only you know, then takes changes in plain words. It never invents figures, quotes or client names.
• The draft in Blocks and Text views. Click any writing (or Tab to it) to change it in place; Edit YAML for the whole draft.
• Use this draft fills the form, to check and save. Nothing is published for you.
