Uses the gemini flash 2.5 preview version from today, but still uses Imagen 3 for image generation (I was getting a "publisher endpoint does not exist" when trying to use the Imagen 4 preview model name).

Requires you go through a sign up process, but the data just goes to me, I don't use the email for anything other than confirming the email can be read for the sign up link, and then rate limiting the account (5/requests per day).

The story generation prompt still needs some improvement, but had some success in getting the generator to follow more of a "Hero's Journey" type structure, so it prompts moving the narrative forward -- just need to tighten up it resolving conflict if the user doesn't.

I think its interesting seeing what works well/gets generated well, vs whats wonky (images can be great, but the model also seems to get confused and start doing fairly unnatural things, even when its getting fairly tame, normal input)
