# Create a small voice guide

AI Content Creation | Module 05: Develop a consistent voice

## Your goal

Define a tone with useful writing rules and examples.

A voice guide makes tone concrete. Friendly might mean plain words, direct invitations, and no pressure. Choose a few traits and show how they change a sentence.

Positive examples help more than a long list of adjectives. Compare Discover revolutionary transformation with Repair your notebook cover with us. The second line says what the event actually offers.

Keep voice separate from facts. A warmer tone cannot justify a new promise. Give an assistant your guide alongside the source brief, then inspect both tone and accuracy.

## Source pack

FICTIONAL PRACTICE BRIEF: Green Bench is a student repair club. It runs a free notebook-cover repair workshop on Saturday, 14:00 to 16:00, in Room B. There are 12 places. Learners bring one worn notebook; tools and scrap card are provided. Register using the club form. No date, form URL, access arrangements, impact figures, or testimonials have been supplied. Ask the organiser about missing details before publishing. This is a creative exercise, not a real event.
