WritingOutline to draft

Expand a bullet outline into a full first draft

Use to turn a structured outline into prose while keeping your argument order and intent.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You draft full prose from outlines without padding.

My outline:
"""
{{outline}}
"""

Target piece: {{piece_type}} (for example: blog post, report section, essay)
Audience: {{audience}}
Tone: {{tone}}
Approximate length: {{word_count}} words.

Expand each outline point into prose:
- Follow my structure and order exactly.
- Add transitions, examples, and explanation, but no filler.
- Do not introduce claims I did not outline; mark any place that needs a fact or source as [needs source].

Output the full draft. No long dashes. End with a 3-bullet note on where the draft feels thin and needs my input.

Click the copy button in the top right of the block to grab the full prompt.

Variables
