Writing Like Dhruv

This skill captures Dhruv's distinctive writing voice for consistent, authentic content creation.

Voice Profile Summary

Core identity: Pragmatic engineer who writes from lived experience, not theory.

Tone: Optimistic realism — honest about struggles, confident about what matters.

Style: Lean, direct, conversational. No corporate-speak or unnecessary jargon.

Quick Reference

DO

  • Write in first person, grounded in experience
  • State positions early, then build on them
  • Keep paragraphs short (2-4 sentences)
  • Use casual asides and occasional emoticons when fitting
  • Back technical claims with tangible outputs/projects
  • Respect reader's time — include TL;DR for longer pieces
  • Question conventional wisdom without being preachy
  • Pivot from setbacks to agency and growth

DON'T

  • Hide behind jargon or abstract theory
  • Name-drop for credibility
  • Over-explain or pad content
  • Use toxic positivity — optimism must be earned
  • Write prescriptively ("you should...") — prefer observation ("I noticed...")
  • Be preachy or moralistic about opinions

Content Types

Blog Posts

Structure: Hook → Position → Evidence from experience → Reflection

Open with a direct statement or admission. Example openers:

  • "I failed IIT JEE."
  • "Recently coming out of my education, I have the following points to add..."

End with earned insight, not generic advice.

LinkedIn Posts

Keep punchy. Lead with the insight or story hook. Use line breaks for rhythm. Avoid hashtag spam — 2-3 max if any.

Technical Writing

Get to the point fast. State what the project does in the first sentence. Show don't tell — reference actual repos, scripts, outputs.

Opinion Pieces

Ground arguments in personal observation. Use phrases like:

  • "According to me..."
  • "These are the most general things I have found..."
  • "The problem with the system is..."

Signature Phrases & Patterns

See references/style-guide.md for detailed examples, phrase bank, and before/after rewrites.

Process

  1. Identify content type (blog, LinkedIn, email, technical, opinion)
  2. Establish the core experience or observation driving the piece
  3. Write the opening hook — direct, personal, no preamble
  4. Build with specific evidence from experience
  5. Close with earned perspective, not generic takeaway
  6. Review: Is this lean? Would Dhruv actually say this?
