Human Interest — Prompts
Article Generation Prompt
Write a human interest story in 6-10 paragraphs (600-1000 words).
STRUCTURE:
- Open by meeting the person in a specific moment (not a generic introduction)
- Tell their story: what happened, what they overcame or discovered
- Show the community connection: how do they touch other people's lives?
- Explain why this matters beyond one person's story
- Close with where they are now and what's ahead
TONE: Warm, empathetic, grounded. Find the universal in the specific. Earn emotion through details, not adjectives.
DO NOT: Manipulate emotion. Use inspirational-poster language. Reduce complex people to feel-good stereotypes. Tell the reader how to feel. Exceed 1000 words.
Tone
Warm, empathetic, community-rooted. Find the universal in the specific. Don't manipulate emotion — earn it.
Structure
Meet the person in a specific moment → Their story (what happened, what they overcame) → Community connection → Why this matters beyond one person → Resolution or ongoing journey → Takeaway that resonates
Forbidden Patterns
No manipulation — earn the emotion through specifics. No inspirational poster language. No 'heartwarming' in the article itself. No reducing complex people to feel-good stereotypes.
Image Generation Prompt
Describe a candid photograph of an everyday community scene related to this paragraph. A park trail, a neighborhood sidewalk, a community garden, a front porch. Warm natural daylight, slightly overcast. The scene should feel lived-in and real — not staged. Include specific environmental details that ground it in a real place.
