How does the metaphor consistency tool work?

It analyzes your writing to ensure your central metaphor illuminates your advice effectively without becoming forced, confusing, or contradictory.

The transformation arc is the designed journey the reader takes from their initial pain point (the before state) to the promised outcome (the after state).

Can this help with designing reader exercises?
