Dear Friends, For months, perhaps years, many of you have been pressing me to tackle one subject in particular: AI. I'm delighted to say that it's finally here: ⭐ AI Writing Mastery: How to Write Professionally, Stylishly, and Ethically With ChatGPT & Other AI Tools ⭐ You can find it in the Classroom alongside my other courses. ❗️ This may be one of the most important courses I've ever created. As you know, for the past few years the world has been rushing headlong into AI to help write emails, reports, articles, strategies, business plans, presentations, books, and more. The problem is that many people are using tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude without first understanding the craft of writing itself. The result is a growing flood of written content that sounds polished but often lacks genuine thought, stylistic sensitivity, or human insight. At stake is more than the quality of our emails and reports. It is the quality of our communication, our culture, and the creative arts. And yet, amid all the excitement and controversy surrounding AI, one question has remained largely unanswered: ❓ How do you actually use these tools well? ❓ In other words, how can you guide AI with literary vision, artistic integrity, and editorial discernment? ❓ How can you avoid the growing catalogue of tonal, rhythmic, and language tells of generic AI prose? ❓ And more broadly, is it possible to combine the timeless principles of good writing with the emerging discipline of prompting in a way that uplifts, rather than degrades, literary craft? These questions are precisely what this course sets out to answer. 🎯 🎯 🎯 WHAT'S INSIDE THE COURSE ✅ Across more than five hours of training, we explore powerful prompting frameworks and advanced prompting mindsets. ✅ I also share my complete Flair Prompting system, which teaches you how to prompt specifically for the four ingredients of good writing: Simplicity, Clarity, Elegance, and Evocativeness. ✅ The course also provides techniques for humanising AI-generated language, along with practical guidance on navigating the technical, legal, ethical, and professional realities surrounding AI.

Hi beautiful souls! I have a few dreams just like you, and one of those is to be able to write stuff that resonates with so many others. What a feeling it would be to hear people say, 'oh, this is my story , this is exactly how I feel', reading my piece. Apart from writing, I am curious about getting to know people and knowing their journey, their success stories etc. I am excited to be a part of this community, to learn and to contribute. Cheers!

In the hands of a wordsmith, punctuation isn't just a tool for making your writing clearer. It's a powerful weapon that can be used to add style and flair to your copy. With enough practice, you too will be able to use commas, dashes, semicolons and other punctuation symbols not only to help readers better navigate the meaning of your sentences, but also to create special effects in your writing. Let me explain. You all know how often I talk about the four ingredients of good writing -- simplicity, clarity, elegance and evocativeness -- right? As you refine your writing skills, you'll naturally find yourself beginning to look at punctuation, too, through this exquisite lens. More and more often, you'll start to wonder how you might deploy punctuation to boost the simplicity, elegance, and evocativeness of your copy -- in addition to its clarity. Some examples: You might insert a full stop to break up a complex sentence into two simpler ones. You may add a couple of well-placed commas, as in this sentence, to contribute to a more elegant rhythm. A pair of dashes -- just like here -- could add a splash of drama to your text, thus making it more evocative. For some practice, add punctuation (and suitable paragraph breaks) to the following "naked" copy with the aim of creating a more engaging reading experience.

There's a school of thought that tells writers to avoid "very." Subscribers to this viewpoint argue the word, generally used for emphasis, is lazy and boring. Why write "very angry," they say, when "furious" is simpler and more evocative? I often find myself using "very" for emphasis, especially in casual or rushed communication. But I agree it's usually better to find a stronger word that captures the meaning "very" hopes to convey. Below a list of commonly used "very" phrases compiled in a post I recently saw on X. I removed the answers so you can practice finding replacement words that avoid the need for further emphasis. Post your own answers below, but don't read anyone's else's until you've had a go yourself! very angry very bad very beautiful very big very bright very boring very clean very cold very dark very difficult very dirty very easy very exciting very expensive very fast very funny very good very happy very high very hot very hungry very loud very low very old very poor very quiet very rich very sad very slow very small very smart very short very strong very stupid very tall very thirsty very tired very ugly very weak very young
