My Content Creation Process

At Tell the Trees, I believe in transparency about how I create content. My articles, blog posts, and website content combine my expertise with modern digital tools that help me deliver the highest quality information to my readers.

My Writing Process

Every piece of content on this site is personally written, edited, and reviewed by me, Michelle Buck, to ensure it meets my quality standards. While I utilize various digital tools to enhance my content creation process, all final content reflects my authentic voice, expertise, and insights.

Tools I Use

I employ several digital tools to help me create accurate, engaging, and reader-friendly content:

Writing Enhancement Tools

  • ProWritingAid: I use this tool for grammar checking, spell-checking, and ensuring clear, precise language usage. This helps me catch technical errors and improve readability while maintaining my authentic voice.

SEO Tools

  • Ubersuggest: This tool helps me research relevant topics and optimize my content with appropriate keywords. I use it to ensure my content is discoverable while maintaining natural, reader-friendly language.

Content Development Tools

  • AI Writing Assistants: I occasionally use AI tools like Claude.ai for initial research and idea generation. However, all AI-generated suggestions undergo substantial editing and rewriting to ensure the content aligns with my expertise and voice. I use AI as a brainstorming tool rather than a content creator.

My Commitment to Quality

Every piece of content on this site goes through my rigorous process:

1. Initial Research & Planning: I combine my expertise with various research tools to identify valuable topics for my readers.
2. Content Development: While I may use AI and other tools for initial ideas, all content is extensively written and edited by me.
3. Quality Review: I thoroughly review every piece for accuracy, clarity, and alignment with my voice and standards.
4. Final Editing: I use ProWritingAid for final technical checks before publication.

Why I’m Sharing This

I believe in being transparent about my content creation process. While I utilize modern tools to enhance my workflow, the expertise, insights, and voice in my content are authentically mine. My primary commitment is to providing valuable, accurate, and engaging content that serves my readers’ needs.

If you have any questions about my content creation process, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
