newsletter-writer
Write a full creator newsletter issue — subject line, preview text, hook, body with a clear takeaway, and a CTA — in the writer's voice, for Substack, beehiiv, ConvertKit, or email. Use when asked to write a newsletter, an email issue, a Substack post, or to turn notes/a topic into a sendable newsletter. Produces a ready-to-send issue with subject-line options and a skimmable structure. Distinct from B2B drip/nurture sequences.

# Newsletter Writer Skill A newsletter is a relationship, not a broadcast. The best issues open a loop in the subject line, reward the open in the first sentence, deliver one clear idea, and make the next step obvious. This skill writes that issue — in your voice, ready to send. ## Working from a brief Given a topic, notes, or a piece to adapt, **write the full issue anyway**. Infer the audience and the single idea; mark invented specifics *(assumed — replace)*. Don't hedge with "in this issue we'll explore…" — get to the value. ## Required Inputs Ask for (if not already provided): - **Topic / notes / source** for the issue - **Audience** and **voice** (or pull from a [[creator-brand-kit]]) - **Goal / CTA** (reply, click, subscribe-upgrade, share) and rough **length** - **Platform** (Substack / beehiiv / ConvertKit / plain email) for formatting norms ## Output Format ### Subject lines **5 options**, mixing curiosity, specificity, and benefit — each ≤ ~50 characters. Star the recommended one. ### Preview text One line (~80 chars) that complements (doesn't repeat) the subject. ### The issue - **Hook** — first 1–2 sentences that reward the open and set up the idea. - **Body** — one co

Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
