The books and editorial work · KCQ-008

Who actually creates and approves the book?

Douglas Chapman is responsible for the editorial work; the family supplies source knowledge and reviews meaningful factual and publication checkpoints.

Kin & Chronicle is human-led. Douglas directs the project, interprets the developing record, decides which proposed questions and editorial actions matter, develops or supervises the manuscript, and carries the work toward production. Family members contribute memories and material and review checkpoints assigned in their plan. AI-assisted tools can propose, compare, organize, and assist drafts, but they do not approve facts, publish changes, contact relatives, or make the final book on their own.
