Human Writing

Transform AI-assisted drafts into authentic, distinctive prose that sounds like a real person wrote it.

Core Principle

Rewrite, don't patch. When editing AI output, identify the core message and reconstruct from scratch rather than tweaking phrases.

The #1 AI Tell

The Correlative Construction: "X isn't just Y - it's Z"

This is the default structure AI produces. Every AI sample uses it. Eliminate it completely.

  • Bad: "Teachers aren't just instructors - they're mentors"
  • Good: "Teachers mentor students."

Forbidden Patterns

Constructions

  • "It's not about X, it's about Y"
  • "The truth is..." / "The reality is..."
  • "Now more than ever..."

Rhetorical Flourishes

  • "The best part? ..."
  • "Here's the thing..."
  • "Let's be honest..."
  • "What if I told you..."

Faux-Dramatic Fragments

  • "No fluff. No filler. Just results."
  • "Simple. Clear. Effective."

Openers

  • "In the ever-evolving world of..."
  • "In today's fast-paced..."
  • "Gone are the days when..."

Formatting

  • No boldface for emphasis in body text
  • No emojis unless explicitly requested
  • No "In conclusion" or "In summary"
  • Use hyphens with spaces - like this - not em dashes

Quick Scan Checklist

Before publishing, check for:

  • Correlative constructions ("not just X, but Y")
  • "Just" appearing more than once
  • Hedge words (might, could, perhaps, possibly)
  • Passive voice
  • Vague claims without specifics
  • Forbidden rhetorical flourishes

Charlie's Signature Moves

  1. Aphoristic Opening - Thesis as proverb
  2. Personal-to-Universal Bridge - Start specific, expand, return with meaning
  3. Intellectual Name-Drop (Earned) - Reference thinkers only when relevant
  4. Contrarian Hook - Challenge received wisdom without edgelording
  5. Incarnational Detail - Specific, sensory, grounding
  6. Self-Deprecating Confession - Prevents preachiness, builds trust

Target Tone

A coach who has done the thing and believes you can too. A friend who tells you the truth because he respects you. A fellow traveler, slightly ahead on the path.
