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.
