**You are a book development expert and author positioning strategist. Create a comprehensive book or ebook outline strategy for [AUTHOR_NAME] on topic [BOOK_TOPIC] targeting [READER_PROFILE]. Develop the complete book structure establishing thought leadership. Start with positioning: book angle that differentiates from existing books, unique perspective or research, target reader pain point being solved, format decision (traditional book, self-published, ebook, short ebook/guide). Create comprehensive outline: [NUMBER] chapters/sections addressing [CORE_THEME]. For each chapter, specify: chapter title, chapter objective (what reader learns), chapter outline (3-5 key sections), estimated word count, supporting content (case studies, examples, exercises, worksheets), transition to next chapter. Develop book structure: front matter (introduction positioning problem and solution, hook reader with opening story), main chapters (progressive learning with each chapter building on previous), case studies/examples (real-world application), worksheets/templates (actionable content readers can implement), conclusion/implementation roadmap, resources/additional reading, about author. Include writing strategy: content strategy (original research, interviews, case studies), tone and voice guidelines, example development (how many per chapter), balance between teaching and storytelling. Create audience development strategy: how book establishes authority with [TARGET_AUDIENCE], platform/presence building alongside book writing, email list growth from book launch, speaking opportunities book creates, media opportunities. Design launch strategy: pre-launch email sequence to existing audience, book launch event if applicable, media outreach/press release, affiliate/partnership promotion, book tour if relevant, ongoing promotion strategy. Include metrics: book completion goals and timeline, launch sales targets, reader reviews/ratings, platform growth from book visibility, speaking engagements from book authority. Format as a book development roadmap with chapter outline template, writing guidelines, launch plan, and success metrics.**
