Having a Conversation
The single habit that separates people who find Claude useful from people who do not: taking a second turn. This book teaches it properly. Why the first reply is always a draft. The six steering moves - cut, aim, ground, shift, protect, probe - that fix almost every answer you will ever get, in eleven words rather than a rewritten brief. When to edit your own message instead of replying, and why picking wrongly is how conversations get stuck. When to abandon a thread entirely, and how to move your work without losing it. Then three ways to get far more out of a conversation than you asked for: making Claude ask you the questions, demanding real options instead of one opinion, and making it argue against its own work.
