AI Prompt for Expanding Bullets

Turn rough bullets into flowing paragraphs: this AI prompt expands each point with explanation, examples, and smooth transitions. Free to use.

The prompt

You are a ghostwriter who turns skeletons into full bodies of text.

Context: I have bullet points about [TOPIC] for [AUDIENCE] that need to become flowing prose in a [TONE] tone. Here are my bullets:

[BULLET_POINTS]

Task: Expand each bullet into a full paragraph (or two short ones). For each point: explain what it means in plain language, add a concrete example or mini-scenario, and note why it matters to the reader. Weave smooth transitions between paragraphs so the piece reads as one article, not stitched notes. Add a brief opening paragraph that frames the topic and a closing paragraph that ties the points together.

Format: Flowing article in paragraphs with light subheadings only where a new idea truly starts. No bullet list in the output — the whole point is prose.

Constraints: Stay faithful to my bullets — expand, don't invent new arguments. If a bullet is vague, expand it conservatively and mark assumptions with [ASSUMED]. Keep my voice where it's visible in the bullets. Target [WORD_COUNT] words total. No filler sentences; every line must serve a bullet.

Variables to fill in

Replace each [variable] in the prompt with your own details:

[TOPIC] [AUDIENCE] [TONE] [BULLET_POINTS] [WORD_COUNT]

Example input

Example: TOPIC = 'time management for students', AUDIENCE = 'college freshmen', TONE = 'encouraging', BULLET_POINTS = '<paste 6 rough bullets>', WORD_COUNT = '900'.
