If you use ChatGPT to create written content, this means you can essentially program ChatGPT to write in your writing style or your favorite author’s style and then ask ChatGPT to create content in that style.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to identify the writing style of your favorite author/writer so you can train ChatGPT to write like them in 5 simple steps.

By the end, you will have ChatGPT create content exactly like your favorite author and save you tonnes of time in editing and other content creation tasks, be it social media posts, LinkedIn, or anything else.

P.S. — You can use these steps to train ChatGPT to learn to write like you as well.

Before we start, remember these pro tips…

  • It’s better to use ChatGPT alongside other AI productivity tools to maximize efficiency, creativity & daily productivity.
  • Use a handful of budget-friendly productivity and AI tools in conjunction with ChatGPT, such as Notion-AI(AI-Everything app), Miro(Free Visual Ideation/Mind-mapping), Qu illbot(Grammarly’s more affordable and better version), and San eBox(Free Email Management tool), which I personally use.
  • These tools are not only cost-effective but will also significantly boost your productivity, enabling you to excel in your day-to-day tasks.
  • Not happy with the output? Tweak the prompt slightly and try again, or ask it to improve its answer.
  • Good prompting skills will always benefit you, whether working with ChatGPT or any other LLM/Generative AI tool.

Here is the Bonus tip for you all:

1) MIRO

Bonus Tip 1Miro is an AI-native app designed to streamline the process of brainstorming, studying, organizing, note-taking and presenting ideas.

Create stunning visual content(mind-maps, flowcharts, presentations etc) simply by chatting.

Miro helps convert your notes and structured essays into beautiful mind maps. It can create an easy-to-understand visual presentation from any idea or prompt.

Just enter a prompt, and you get a beautiful chart of your choice amongst the 2500+ free concept map templates. It makes me and my team understand everything faster,more efficient, and save a tonne of time.

I use it to create stunning mind maps, visual brainstorming, creating flowcharts and other presentations from my unorganized notes and ideas especially for my work, and studies.

This app has completely revolutionized the way I take notes and record my ideas, as someone who enjoys taking notes and jotting down every idea, this app is truly a game-changer.

It is another value-for-money tool that is dirt cheap compared to the amazing features it provides. Trust me, you will absolutely fall in love with this app’s simplicity, user experience, and ease of use.

2) NOTION:

Bonus Tip 2: One great AI Everything Productivity/Task management tool I recently started using is Notion. Over the past few months, Notion has become famous and my absolute favorite.

Notion AI recently took on Google Docs and Microsft Office as per Forbes. Notion has continued to double down on Knowledge Management and AI, becoming an industry leader.

If you are like me, Juggling work, daily tasks, notes, and projects is tough. Multiple tabs for email, Slack, and Google Docs make it overwhelming.

I personally use Notion AI, which streamlines everything in one place. It’s a game-changer, and you won’t regret using it.

I’ve been using its PRO version for a while now, and I must say, its been a complete game-changer for me. With almost every online co-working tool inegration you can think of, it makes my daily work routine a breeze.

Plus, the pricing is unbeatable/cheapest for the tonnes of features it provides compared to all other all-in-one AI productivity tools I have used.

I have taken up the annual subscription for a mere $8/month(40% off).

It is another awesome tool that is really dirt cheap, feature-rich, and value-for-money.

INDEX

Step 1 — Find out the Writing style

Step 2 — Add Writing Samples

Step 3 — Analyze the Writing Style

Step 4 — Ask For What You Want

Step 5 — Now Add the Writing Style to Custom Instructions

Step 1 — Find Out the Writing Style

I’d like your help in creating [CONTENT] for [PURPOSE].

Your first and crucial task will be to thoroughly understand my favorite [AUTHOR’s] writing style based on the examples that I give you.

After that, we’ll create some content in the same writing style. To start, please say GO AHEAD, and I will paste examples of my writing. Keep saying GO AHEAD, and I will paste new examples. When I am done, I will say FINISHED. At this stage, please do not do anything except confirm that you have saved the writing style.

Step 2 — Add Writing Samples

When you have the go-ahead from ChatGPT, copy and paste the text from one of your favorite articles, LinkedIn posts, newsletters, books, or even emails into the input box. Select work that is a good representation of their style, including sentence length, vocabulary, tone, and format.

After you’ve pasted one, hit return. ChatGPT should keep saying, “Go ahead” as you add more. I recommend at least 3 examples of your writing in the same format as you’re going to request, ideally at least 1000 words in total and ideally on different topics within your niche.

After you’ve sent the last example, type “finished“ and ChatGPT will be ready for your next prompt.

Step3 — Analyze the Writing style

Great. Let’s call this “[NAME] writing style”. Analyze the writing voice, tone, and structure of the writing samples I pasted above. Output bullet points.

Focus on the sentence structure, tone, and voice.

NOTE: We will use the output of this prompt to save the characteristics of your favorite author’s writing style and add them to ChatGPT’s custom instructions in STEP-5 to use in the future without repeating the entire steps.

Step 4 — Ask For what you Want

[ADD SOME CONTEXT ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT TO WRITE ABOUT — eg — Social media post, LinkedIn post, Article, tutorial etc. ]

Can you create one of these for me in [NAME] writing style?

Please use the topic of [topic you want to write about].

Include [any additional details].

Step 5 — Add the writing style to custom instructions

Now that you’ve identified the characteristics of your favorite author‘s writing style, add them to ChatGPT’s custom instructions.

  • With ChatGPT open, click your profile.
  • Click Custom instructions.
  • In the section under How would you like ChatGPT to respond? enter the characteristics of [NAME] writing style that you got in [STEP-3]. Here’s a template you can use to input your instructions:
  • If you want, you can also provide ChatGPT with additional context in the section under What would you like ChatGPT to know about you to provide better responses? For example, “I write children’s storybooks.” Or “I write product reviews for Wirecutter.”

The Template-Example:

Use this voice: authoritative and engaging.

Use this tone: conversational and slightly motivating.

Use this style: informal.

Use this structure: start with a brief problem statement and then explain the solution.

CONCLUSION

Congrats! You are all set to create content like your favorite author with your own personal touch. Use these steps to train chatgpt to write like you or your favorite author/writer, save some time, and become a super-writer.

Awesome, you have reached the end and have already become smarter, more effective, and more productive just by learning about these insane websites and platforms to earn crazy money. The next step is to use them. Good luck!
