Behind the scenes: What I'm writing these days

I spent the past month or so on holiday in Spain and Germany with my wife and kids. In between trips, I scripted lessons for PromptWritingStudio. Each lesson is 500–600 words long and contains tested AI prompts and workflows for tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. One of the more practical course lessons covers how to turn AI into an editorial assistant—the kind you’d typically pay a few grand for. I spent 15+ years as a journalist, sub-editor, and copywriter for various newspapers and...

A collector am I. I test AI prompts for a variety of use cases. I use them in ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude and compare the outputs. I’ve rounded up some popular prompts for content creators, copywriting, email marketing, and more. Check them out here Feedback welcome :)

Are you into vibe coding?

Lovable is a hot and trendy AI vibe coding tool. A few days ago, the Swedish company completed a $200 funding round and hit a whopping $1.8 billion valuation. Not bad for a company less than two years old. Founder Anton Osika says he wants to turn this new unicorn into the Canva of the coding space, i.e., make coding super easy for the masses. I tried Lovable for a vibe coding project and found it remarkably easy to use. Other popular options include Replit and Bolt. Since recording that...

The 30-Minute System I Use to Write Daily Emails Without Burnout

I spent 30 minutes a day writing a daily newsletter. I wrote this short edition after walking the kids to Summer camp. I usually find an interesting story on a site like the Drudge Report or on X and write about it. Today, I stumbled across a fun story about OpenAI founder Sam Altman. He’s looking into a doomsday bunker. He said: “I have been thinking actually that I should do a good version of one of those but I don’t have what I would call a bunker - but it has been on my mind. Not because...

ChatGPT Agent Mode: Cool AI Trick or Total Time Sink?

ChatGPT agent rolled out last week. Basically, Agent is a visual AI browser that interacts with the web and runs queries based on your prompts. It can also connect with Gmail, GitHub, and your calendar. Think of Agent as like an AI-powered VA. It comes as part of ChatGPT Plus. I tried Agent mode for a few hours. I prompted Agent to research triathlon races in Ireland, find and buy creatine powder, and review my YouTube channel and LinkedIn content ideas. And the results? Watching Agent...

How small newsletters can compete with big publishers

This sponsorship pitch from the team at Kit landed in my inbox a while ago. I run sponsored slots a few times a month, and they wanted to connect me with a newsletter advertiser. I don’t accept all of these pitches. I usually review the advertiser and check that it aligns with my brand or content. When I find one I like, I edit the copy, write an email, and hit send. It’s a nice way of getting paid to write a newsletter. If you’ve an engaged list or a large list, you’ll attract the pitches...
