It draws on examples of the writer's published work to produce content that is direct, opinionated, conversational, and grounded in practical experience. The skill includes automatic Notion integration and maintains a growing library of finalized examples. ## When to Use This Skill Trigger this skill when: - The user requests blog post or article writing in "my style" or "like my other posts" - Drafting thought leadership content on AI, productivity, marketing, or technology - Creating articles that need the writer's authentic voice and perspective - The user provides research materials, links, or notes to incorporate into writing ## Core Responsibilities 1. **Follow the writer's Writing Style**: Match voice, word choice, structure, and length of example posts in `references/blog-examples/` 2. **Incorporate Research**: Review and integrate any information, research material, or links provided by the user 3. **Follow User Instructions**: Adhere closely to the user's specific requests for topic, angle, and emphasis 4. **Produce Authentic Writing**: Create content that reads as genuinely the writer's voice, not generic AI-generated content ## Workflow ### Phase 1: Gather Information Request from the user: - Topic or subject matter - Any specific angle or thesis to explore - Research materials, links, or notes (if available) - Target length preference (default: 800-1500 words) Review all provided materials thoroughly before beginning to write. ### Phase 2: Draft the Content Reference the style guide at `references/style-guide.md` and examples in `references/blog-examples/` for calibration. When writing: 1. Start with a strong opening statement establishing the thesis 2. Use personal voice and first-person perspective where natural 3. Include relevant personal anecdotes or professional experience if applicable 4. Structure with clear subheadings (###) every 2-3 paragraphs 5. Keep paragraphs short (2-4 sentences) 6. Weave in research materials naturally, not as block quotes 7. End with reflection, call-to-action, or forward-looking statement ### Phase 3: Review and Iterate Present the draft and gather feedback. Iterate until the user confirms satisfaction. ### Phase 4: Publish to Notion (REQUIRED) When the draft is complete (even if not yet finalized), publish to the TS Notes database. **Notion Publication Details:** - Database: "TS Notes" (data source ID: [REDACTED_SECRET]) - **Type property**: `Writing` - **Project(s) property**: Link to "My Writing" project (page URL: `https://www.notion.so/2a5b4629bb3780189199f3c496980c0c`) - **Note property**: The title of the blog post - **Content**: The full blog post content in Notion-flavored Markdown **Example Notion API call properties:** ```json { "Note": "Blog Post Title Here", "Type": "Writing", "Project(s)": "[\"https://www.notion.so/2a5b4629bb3780189199f3c496980c0c\"]" } ``` **CRITICAL**: The outcome is considered a **failure** if the content is not added to Notion. Always publish to Notion as part of the workflow, even for drafts. ### Phase 5: Finalize to Examples Library (Post-Outcome) When the user confirms the draft is **final**: 1. Save the finalized post to `references/blog-examples/` with filename format: ``` YYYY-MM-DD-slug-title.md ``` Example: `2025-11-25-why-ai-art-is-useless.md` 2. Check the examples library count: - If exceeding 20 examples, ask user permission to remove the 5 oldest - Sort by filename date prefix to identify oldest files The post-outcome is considered **successful** when the final draft is saved to the skill folder. ## Success Criteria | Outcome | Success | Failure | |---------|---------|---------| | Primary | User receives requested content AND it is added to TS Notes with Type=Writing and Project=My Writing | Content delivered but NOT added to Notion | | Post-outcome | Final draft saved to `references/blog-examples/` | Final draft not saved when user confirms it's final | ## the writer's Writing Style Profile ### Voice & Tone - **Direct and opinionated**: State positions clearly, even contrarian ones - **Conversational**: Write like speaking to a colleague—accessible without being simplistic - **First-person when sharing experience**: Use "I" naturally for personal insights - **Authentic skepticism**: Willing to criticize trends when warranted ### Structure Patterns - **Strong opening thesis**: Open with a clear, often bold statement - **Subheadings throughout**: Use `###` format liberally to break up content - **Short paragraphs**: Rarely more than 3-4 sentences - **Personal anecdotes woven in**: Illustrate points with real examples - **Practical takeaways**: Provide actionable insights, not just theory - **Reflective conclusion**: End with call-to-action or forward-looking hope ### Length & Format - Target: 800-1500 words - Markdown format with headers and emphasis - Minimal bullet points in prose—prefer flowing sentences ### Vocabulary Markers - Uses "leverage" for tools/technology - Says "that said" for transitions - Comfortable with direct statements like "this is useless" or "boy was I wrong" - Uses contractions naturally (I've, doesn't, won't) - Avoids corporate jargon while maintaining professionalism ### Thematic Elements - AI as tool, not replacement - Practical over theoretical - Human-centered technology - Honest assessment of what works and what doesn't ## Resources ### references/style-guide.md Quick reference for the writer's writing patterns, vocabulary preferences, and structural conventions. ### references/blog-examples/ Contains example blog posts demonstrating the writer's writing style. These serve as reference material when calibrating voice and structure. New finalized posts expand this library over time. ## Notion API Reference To create a page in TS Notes: ``` Database data source ID: 04a872be-8bed-4f43-a448-3dfeebc0df21 Properties: - "Note": (title) - The blog post title - "Type": "Writing" - "Project(s)": ["https://www.notion.so/2a5b4629bb3780189199f3c496980c0c"] Content: Full blog post in Notion-flavored Markdown ``` The "My Writing" project page ID is: `2a5b4629-bb37-8018-9199-f3c496980c0c`
