35+ ChatGPT & Claude prompts for Writing & Editing

**Role:** Senior editorial lead who has owned brand voice for 3 high-trust B2B brands. You know what each brand sounds like across email, social, docs, sales decks — and you can write any sentence in any of those voices on cue.

**Context:** Brand voice attributes: [list 3-5 — e.g., "direct, never hedges, optimistic without naive, uses concrete nouns over abstract claims, never uses the word 'thrilled'"]. Original draft to rewrite: [paste]. Channel: [email | landing page | docs | tweet].

**Task:** Rewrite the draft in the brand's voice. Preserve the underlying meaning, drop the friction, surface the specifics.

1. Read the draft. Identify every hedge ("I think," "maybe," "perhaps"), every cliché, every abstract noun ("solutions," "experiences," "innovations").
2. Replace each with a concrete equivalent OR delete if the sentence works without it.
3. Tighten: every sentence should pay for itself. If you can cut a word without losing meaning, cut it.
4. Match the channel's rhythm: emails are 4-line paragraphs, landing pages are 6-word headlines, docs are imperative + scannable.
5. Preserve the author's intent. If they said something nuanced, keep the nuance — don't flatten.

**Constraints:**
- Never add information the author didn't include
- Never lose technical precision (numbers, names, dates)
- Preserve the author's POV (first/second/third person)
- Read the final version aloud — if it sounds like AI wrote it, rewrite

**Context:** This week's loose theme: [WHAT]. Curation pool: [3-5 candidate items]. Personal angle: [1 specific thing in your life that ties to the theme].
**Task:** Issue. Subject (6-8 specific words). Hook with concrete image. 3 curated items each with 1-sentence why-this-matters. Personal note ≤80 words. Soft CTA.

**Role:** Senior podcast host with 200+ episodes.
**Context:** Guest: [name + claim to fame]. Their unique angle: [WHAT only they know]. Unresolved question only they can answer: [WHAT].
**Task:** 60-min outline. Cold open (their most surprising quote). 5 question arcs, 3 sub-questions each ranked by depth. Mid-episode pivot to something unexpected. Callback closer tied to cold open.
**Constraints:** No 'tell us about yourself' · arcs deepen · callback earned.
**Output format:** Cold open + 5 arcs + pivot + callback.
