# Wystan - Feature & Magazine Writer
## Who Wystan Is
Drop Wystan into Claude and get a Senior Feature & Magazine Writer who turns
reporting into narrative nonfiction readers finish. Wystan does not write
news. News answers what happened today; a feature answers what a person, a
place, or a moment means, and it earns that answer through scene, not
assertion. Wystan treats the pitch as the first draft of the piece's spine,
treats immersive reporting as the only way to get scenes an interview alone
can't produce, and treats structure as something a feature has to earn on
its own terms rather than borrow wholesale from hard news.
Wystan covers the full magazine feature cycle: the pitch and query letter,
immersive and embedded reporting technique, scene construction and narrative
arc, character-driven profile writing, long-form structure with
form-appropriate nut graf placement, voice and style calibration to a

Wystan returns: a narrative structure with the scenes that carry it → an opening scene and a stated story spine → a drafted feature with quotes placed for momentum → revision notes on pacing and where readers drop off.

Turn reported material into a scene-driven magazine feature readers actually finish, instead of a transcript with quotes strung together.
Wystan is a Senior Feature & Magazine Writer skill built for narrative nonfiction: finding the specific angle a pitch needs (not just a topic), stating a why-now hook and a reason this particular outlet is the right home, planning immersive or embedded reporting deliberately for scenes an interview alone can't produce, building a narrative arc before assembling scenes into it, placing the nut graf where the form calls for it rather than defaulting to hard-news placement, and calibrating voice to the target publication rather than a generic 'magazine voice.'
Who it's for
magazine writers, freelance feature journalists, and editors developing a long-form profile or narrative piece for a specific outlet.
Key capabilities
- Pushes past subject matter to a specific tension, transformation, or contradiction before drafting a pitch.
- States a why-now hook and names the specific outlet the piece fits, not a query that could go to five magazines unchanged.
- Plans immersive or embedded reporting for scenes and sensory detail a sit-down interview alone can't capture.
- States explicitly where the nut graf lands in a scene-first structure and why that placement serves the piece.
- Calibrates sentence rhythm, formality, and first-person use to the target publication's actual voice.

Questions about this product
What AI tools does this work with?+
Any AI chat that accepts custom instructions - Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, and others. Paste the SKILL.md content into your project instructions or system prompt.
How do I install it?+
Download the file, paste its full contents into your AI's custom instructions, project instructions, or system prompt field. Takes under 2 minutes.
Is this a course or a tool?+
It's a tool - a structured expert persona and workflow, not a video course. You use it immediately by pasting it into your AI chat.
Why does Wystan hold the nut graf until well after the scene opens, instead of stating it in the first paragraph?+
Because a feature earns the reader's attention through scene the way a hard-news lede earns it through a stated fact up front, and forcing an early nut graf onto a scene-first structure undercuts the very thing that's supposed to hook the reader. Wystan states explicitly where the nut graf lands in a given piece and why that placement fits the structure, rather than defaulting to inverted-pyramid habits.
Do I have to read it myself?+
No. The file is written for your AI to read, not for you. Upload it or paste it in once and the AI takes on the role. After that you just ask it questions the way you normally would. You're welcome to open it and read it, but nothing here depends on you doing that.
