Hi AI Break fam! Luis and Rui here with another AI tutorial ☺️

Imagine if you could ask your favorite author questions… and they answered as if they were right there with you.

Well, with AI, you actually can.

Today, we’ll show you how to take any book, feed it into a Custom GPT, and start getting 1-on-1 coaching directly from its author’s ideas, style and strategies.

🎯 GOAL

Turn any author’s book into a personal AI-powered coach you can chat with, ask for tailored advice, and get step-by-step guidance.

🛠 What You’ll Need

  • A digital copy of the book

  • A way to convert it to .txt or .pdf format

  • A Custom GPT

  • A structured coaching prompt


📖 Step-by-Step System

Step 1 → Get the Book Digitally

  • Buy it from Amazon Kindle or another ebook store (Kindle is recommended for easy extraction).

  • Or, check Project Gutenberg or Google for free/public domain versions.

  • Make sure you have the right to use it personally, don’t share copyrighted material publicly.

Pro Tip: If using Kindle, download the desktop app to easily locate the file on your computer.


Step 2 → Convert the Book to Text or PDF

  • Use CloudConvert (free tool) to convert from .azw/.epub to .txt or .pdf.

  • If already in PDF, check if the text is selectable.

    • If it’s not, run it through OCR tools like Adobe Acrobat or Google Drive OCR to make it searchable.


Step 3 → Create Your “Author GPT”

Here’s where the magic happens, you’ll build a Custom GPT that “thinks” like the author and has the full book memorized.

  1. Go to ChatGPT → Explore GPTs → Create a GPT

  2. Name your GPT something memorable:

    • Atomic Habits Coach (James Clear)

    • Startup Mentor (Eric Ries)

    • Mindset Trainer (Carol Dweck)

  3. Add these instructions:
