How I Write With AI


Hi Reader

I've built a Claude AI project for writers.

It’s dramatically improved my content creation process.

Here's how it works:

I write my initial content (usually a 400-800 word email) based on research, personal stories, and reader feedback.

Then, I use Claude AI as an editorial assistant to:

  • Analyze potential flaws in my arguments
  • Identify gaps in my thinking
  • Suggest supporting content
  • Help repurpose the content for social media

I'm not using AI to write. I enjoy writing too much to hand that over. I create content using personal stories and insights.

But, I use AI as a thought partner to work on what I’ve created, spot gaps and future pieces of content. Watch the video below to see my project in action.

If you’re feeling stuck like me,...

Hi Reader, This week, I launched a private Telegram community for readers of this email list. My goal is to share insider content about how I run my six-figure content business and help you add $3k to yours by 2025. I also want to explore other distribution channels that don't rely on an algo. Then, I can share the results with you so you can do the same. After I launched my Telegram community, a few subscribers emailed me to ask, "Why not WhatsApp?" Well, I picked Telegram because of its...

Hi Reader, For a few years, I was a content strategist for a Fintech. One of my projects was improving a newsletter for small business owners. The newsletter enjoyed a lousy 5% open rate. The back of a cereal box was more engaging than the boring product content inside the newsletter that a developer banged out between coding sessions. So, we stripped out the boring product content and started sending customer stories and how-to guides. And open rates slowly climbed towards 20%. My open rates...
