How I use AI to write
AI for Writers: Tool or Threat?

A few months ago, I felt like I was dragging my creativity uphill.
Every writing session started with a blank page and a sigh.
I wasn’t blocked but I was bored.
Then I started experimenting with AI writing tools.
Not to replace my voice, but to refine it.
To structure ideas faster.
To turn “meh” drafts into something worth editing.
AI isn’t here to take your place. it’s here to take your hand and say:
“Let’s just start. I’ll walk with you.”
I still write every word.
But now I brainstorm smarter.
I test hooks, outline faster, and get unstuck quicker.
It’s not magic. It’s momentum.
And for anyone who writes (especially online), that’s priceless.

Here’s a free AI tool I recommend:
Use it to:
Outline blog posts
Brainstorm newsletter themes
Rewrite boring sentences
Get unstuck during edits
Pro tip: Tell it what you’re trying to feel in the writing. not just what you want it to say.
Before You Go…
If you’re curious how to use AI to accelerate your writing, not dilute it, I’m working on something special.
