Codify Your Writing Style to Create Your AI Writing Assistant

Before You Start

First, get together 3-5 examples of your writing. Ideally, articles or social posts that provide about 3,000 words total for analysis.

The Prompt

Then, post this prompt:

Analyze the following writing samples and identify the consistent elements that define my writing style. Provide a detailed breakdown including:

1. Tone – The emotional quality of my writing (e.g., conversational, authoritative, warm, direct).
2. Voice – The personality behind my words (e.g., mentor-like, bold, reflective, friendly).
3. Sentence Structure – How I construct sentences (e.g., short and punchy, varied length, use of rhetorical questions, lists).
4. Content Style – The way I present ideas (e.g., storytelling, step-by-step guides, thought leadership, personal anecdotes).
5. A Writing Style Name – A concise, catchy name that encapsulates my style.
6. A Custom Writing Prompt – A reusable prompt that I can apply whenever I create new content to maintain consistency in my voice and style.

Considerations

As fast as the world is adopting AI, just as fast are the humans getting familiar with it’s output (at least for today). For example, AI LOVES emojis (you know what I’m talking about). Be thoughtful how you use this tool for content creation as much of what is produced will look a lot like others (even if you are using your own writing style). Even if you are using it as a starting point, make sure to edit it before it goes to ensure there is enough of YOU in it.
