From The Vault: Better Writing With ChatGPT

From The Vault: Better Writing With ChatGPT

Author: Cary Weston December 23, 2025 Duration: 23:29

Episode Summary

From the Vault: Originally recorded in February 2024

In this episode from the vault, Cary Weston walks listeners through a structured and practical framework to help ChatGPT write in your voice. With writing being one of the top use cases—and frustrations—for users, Cary shows you how to define and train ChatGPT using your own writing samples, audience details, and repeatable prompts to create content that actually sounds like you. Whether you're just starting or looking to level up, this episode is packed with actionable advice.


3 Key Takeaways

  • Voice, tone, and style need to be defined separately: Voice is your personality, tone is your attitude, and style is how your writing is structured.

  • Use your own writing to train ChatGPT: Feed it 3 samples of your work, then have it analyze for patterns and consistencies in voice, tone, and style.

  • Get detailed with your audience: Describe your audience to ChatGPT and let it interview you to uncover more nuanced details—this helps your content truly resonate.
