Step 1. Brain dump into a doc (consider using dictation to get more thoughts down faster)
Step 2. Have an LLM give it structure & progression. You are ordering your thoughts for readability, so you'll probably want to throw it away. You're still refining your thoughts at this stage.
Step 3. Take the LLM output as a starting point, or write an outline from scratch. Flesh it out into a first draft
Step 4. simplify: cut words, swap big words for small words, etc.
Step 5. Repeat step 4.
LLMs bridge the gap from word-vomit to structure. You should be willing to throw away what you get from the LLM.
At least 30% can always be cut. It's amazing how much can be trimmed without losing the intent.
