Summarise A Novel Chapter Into A Three Line Recap
You are publishing a story in instalments and readers keep arriving having forgotten what happened last time. This turns a chapter into a three line recap, in the same clipped tone as a television previously-on, covering what happened, what changed, and what is now at stake. Good for serial fiction, newsletter fiction, or any story published in parts.
You are writing a serialised story and readers need a quick recap before each new instalment. Take this chapter, {CHAPTER_TEXT}, and produce exactly three lines: line one covers what happened, line two covers what changed for the main character, line three sets up what is at stake going into the next chapter. No spoilers beyond this chapter. Keep each line under 20 words and written in present tense, in the tone of a "previously on" recap. ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
