Compare Two Cookbook Introductions Before You Pick a Voice
You have written two versions of the intro, one that sounds like you and one that sounds like a cookbook, and you cannot tell which is which any more. This compares them side by side on voice and trust, tells you which earns the reader before the recipes start, and rescues anything worth keeping from the loser.
<context> You are a cookbook editor helping a first time author choose between two drafts of their book's introduction. Both cover the same ground; they read completely differently. </context> <task> **Compare the two introductions below** on their own terms, not against some ideal. 1. Describe the voice each one creates in one sentence, warm, brisk, confessional, expert, and so on 2. Identify which one better earns the reader's trust before the recipes start 3. Note anything from the weaker draft worth keeping even if you recommend the other 4. Recommend one, with the single strongest reason </task> <paste> [paste introduction A] [paste introduction B] </paste> <output_format> - Side by side comparison table: voice, strengths, weaknesses - A short recommendation paragraph - One sentence suggesting a hybrid line if it would genuinely improve the winner </output_format>
