A practical prompting guide for Claude writing tasks: front-load context before asking for output. Specify the audience, angle, desired outcome, and brand tone instead of vague asks like "write a LinkedIn post about AI." Provide examples so Claude learns structure, pacing, and hook style rather than copying them. And for revisions, ask Claude to diagnose weaknesses (hook, clarity, structure, specificity, examples, CTA) and suggest 3 improvements before rewriting — turning it from a writing tool into an editing partner.
