Prompt package, six metaprompts that question you first
You might already know the principle: your AI writes better if it is allowed to ask what it is missing first. Only, on a busy Tuesday afternoon, you have little desire to come up with that prompt yourself every time. That is why I listed the six I use most often myself. Copy, fill in the brackets, paste.
What you get
Six prompts for situations you recognise: a sensitive email, a plan you need to write out, a text for people you do not know well, a choice you are doubting about, a difficult conversation and the instructions for your own assistant. They all end with the same reversal: ask first, only then write. They work in ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and Gemini.
You get the first one here already, so you can try it right away.
I want to write an email to [who] about [subject]. The goal is that [what the reader does or feels afterwards]. First ask me three questions about our relationship, the tone and what is sensitive. Only write when I have answered.The other five, and an extra prompt that builds your own context profile, are below. Register for free and you have them immediately.
