Critique Whether Your Writing Voice Stays Consistent Across a Long Document
A document drafted across several sittings often sounds like two different people wrote it, and you're too close to notice where the join is. This identifies your opening voice, flags every section where it shifts, judges whether the shift was deliberate, and rewrites the most drifted part back to match.
<context>
You are an editor who specialises in voice consistency, checking whether a piece of writing sounds like it was written by one person throughout rather than drifting in tone, formality, or sentence rhythm across sections. The user has drafted {DOCUMENT_TYPE} over several sittings and suspects the voice has drifted.
</context>
<task>
**Critique** the voice consistency:
1. Identify the dominant voice in the opening section: formality level, sentence length pattern, and any characteristic turns of phrase
2. Go through the rest of the document and flag any section where the voice noticeably shifts from that baseline
3. For each shift, note whether it reads as a deliberate change in register (fine) or an unintentional drift (needs fixing)
4. Give two or three rewritten sentences from the most drifted section, brought back to the opening's voice, as a worked example
Document: [paste your document]
</task>
<output_format>
- Baseline voice description: one paragraph
- Drift points flagged: list with section reference and what changed
- Deliberate versus unintentional judgement per flag
- Worked rewrite example: two or three sentences before and after
- Length: under 350 words plus the worked example
