I'm terrible at writing, but I love reading. I've got ideas for novels, but I struggle to put them down.
What I have found that works is to give the LLM the "world" outline at the beginning and then just feed it one line summary of each chapter and get it to write a chapter at a time.
The problem is that the quality of results drastically decreases as the context length increases. After about 10 chapters the dialogue will start to get real snippy. I've tried getting it to summarize all the previous chapters and feed that back in, but it never includes enough detail.
The only way to get better at something is to do it. Start writing short stories or small novels, and you will get there over time. You don't even have to be a great writer to write a great book as well :). It helps, but readers will forgive a lot along your journey.
Brandon Sanderson has a great series of lectures on how he approaches it that are awesome ->
I am working on some world-building for something I want to write one day, but I am trying just to write little things to help. I write a lot of nonfiction stuff for work, but I am worried that it might not translate as well to characters...
