Story Continuer
Stuck at the end of your last paragraph? Paste the story you have, choose whether it should keep going, take a twist or reach its ending, and add a note about what should happen next. This story continuer reads your text first and writes the next part in the same voice, tense and point of view, using only the characters and facts you already established.
How to Use the Story Continuer
Paste what you have
Paste up to 30,000 characters or 5,000 words, ending at the point where the story should continue. Add a title if you like. If a scene depends on an earlier detail, such as a name, a promise or a location, keep it in the pasted text, because the continuation can only rely on what it can read.
Choose where the story goes
Pick Continue the story for the next scene, Add a twist for a surprise that fits what has already been established, or Write the ending to resolve the main conflict. Then say what should happen next in your own words, choose the genre if you want to steer it, and set the added length to short, medium or long.
Read it against your draft
Your original text stays exactly as you pasted it and the new passage is added after it, marked as new in the reader. The result is saved to My stories as a separate version. Continue again from the reader, rewrite a section, or copy it into your own document.
Give the Next Scene a Job
A continuation works best when you tell it what the next passage must accomplish: a character makes a decision, a secret is half revealed, or a promise is broken. Compare that with an open request such as keep going, which leaves the model to invent the direction. Name one event and one limit, for example a clue that should stay unexplained.
Check Voice, Tense and Facts
Read the first lines of the new passage next to your last paragraph. The continuation is asked to match your point of view, tense and character facts, but long drafts can still produce small drift, such as a changed eye colour or a forgotten injury. If you spot one, add a note naming the fact and continue again, or edit the result before you use it.
Directions to Try
These are example notes you can paste into the box. The results will vary with your story.
Continue the scene
Keep Mara's close third-person view. Let the harbor master recognize the coat but refuse to say why he is afraid of it.
Add a twist
Reveal that the second lantern was lit from the boat, not from the shore, without explaining who is on it.
Write the ending
End with Mara lighting the beacon for the boat, choosing to expose the smuggling route, and a quiet last image of the open door.

Questions About the Story Continuer
How is this different from the AI story writer?
Story Continuer is the quick path for one task: paste a story and add what comes next, with a choice between continuing, a twist and an ending. The AI story writer handles the same draft but also offers Rewrite for changing existing passages.
Will it change the text I paste?
No. The pasted text is kept as written and the new paragraphs are added after it. Anything you want changed in the old text is a separate rewrite, which creates another version instead of replacing your draft.
Do I need an account and credits?
Yes. Continuing a pasted story needs sign-in, and each request uses the credit price shown below the button before you submit. A failed generation returns the credits. Check pricing for the allowances on each plan.
How long can the story be?
Up to 30,000 characters and 5,000 words. Longer drafts need to be trimmed to the part the next scene depends on, usually the last chapter or the last few scenes plus any facts the ending needs.
Where is the continuation saved?
In My stories, as a separate story linked to the pasted version. Free accounts keep stories for a limited time, so copy anything you want to keep long term. Pricing lists the storage period for each plan.
