1. The compact operating systemThe whole writing process as stage checklists, from finding the occasion to the final questions. Use it when the full course is too long to consult mid-project.
2. Rules that seemed contradictoryFifteen pairs of writing rules that appear to conflict, each with the context that decides which rule applies and how both can hold.
3. GlossaryDefinitions of the course's working terms, from atomicity to topic position, each linked to the module that teaches it where one does.
4. Sources and further readingThe writing corpus this course synthesises and the external research added to fill its gaps, with what each source contributes and where to find it.

1. How to use this courseThis course is a map of different writing problems, so first identify the job the writing is doing, then apply the rule that fits that job.
2. The course doctrineTen stable principles run through your writing work, from writing as a way of thinking to using AI to increase intellectual resistance.
3. Final doctrineThe most important distinction in this course is between writing that merely sounds resolved and writing that has earned resolution.
