The Most Powerful Thing You Can Do As a Writer
Show up publicly.
“If you wish you would take something more seriously, do it publicly… Social pressure forces you to up your game.”
— James Clear
Online writing has exploded.
While more people are doing it, there’s also a demand for quality. People hunger for great writing. They want better stories. They want better ideas. They want better information to consume.
Writing publicly is the most powerful thing you can do as a writer. It improves the quality of your ideas and your writing. It forces you to write better.
Start Sharing Online
Sharing your work online is an emotional rollercoaster. When you start, you feel like everyone is watching you. Everyone sees your writing and ignores it or hates it.
That’s toxic thinking. You have to believe everything you write will help at least one person.
Sharing your work online is more about showing up every day. It’s about not putting all your hope into one piece of work. More importantly, you learn what people think of your words.
