My #1 writing tip as an editor & Boost nominator on Medium

Hey Reader, This email is all about helping you grow your audience and income by becoming a better, more effective writer, and I'll start by sharing a brand-new video that I just released:
In this video, I talk about things like:

And yet, my perspective on writing and editing has changed when I started to run one of Medium's largest publications last year. As an editor of Better Marketing, I review dozens of stories each week. And I reject most of them because they don't meet our guidelines and quality criteria. Even though I'm wearing different hats as a writing coach, editor, and Boost Nominator, my goal is always the same: Helping writers get their work seen. And the #1 change I request when I review drafts is usually the same: I'll tell writers to dig deeper and go the extra mile for their readers. When you give advice or educate, tell your reader exactly what to do. If you want to stand out & have a chance to reach thousands of readers on Medium, you have to go the extra mile by being more specific, clear, and useful than most writers. I know it's not always easy to implement tips like these - that's why I've recently been working on some exciting resources to help you become a top writer and grow your audience online. But I want to make sure I only send those resources to writers who are interested. If you're interested in growing your audience and income by writing online this year, reply to this email with "Writing" so I know you're interested. This is also relevant if you're a brand-new writer with zero previous writing experience - we have special resources for you! 😊 Big love from my screen to yours, 👋 Want more?

Hey Reader, I was born in May so it's always been a special month for me but the older I get, the more I learn to celebrate me because I realize that life's too short to be busy, grumpy, envious, or resentful. But this month is also special because we recently kicked off a live cohort of my signature program, Medium Writing Academy, and we have tons of exciting live events scheduled! It's been an absolute pleasure to meet dozens of talented and curious writers in our first calls and receive...
Hey Reader, for most people, this is a normal week. For me, it's nerve-wracking for two reasons: ☝️ Taylor Swift is releasing a new album on Friday. ✌️ I'm hosting my biggest-ever LIVE Masterclass on Thursday with more than 1,500 writers who have already signed up! I'd love to pretend I care a lot more about the Masterclass than about Taylor Swift's music, but I'm a horrible liar, so let's say that I'm VERY excited about both. 😅 Seriously: I only host this Masterclass once per year, and it's...
Want to know how you can share your message with millions of people by writing online in 2024? Write on Linkedin & Twitter/X (?!) Do dancing videos on TikTok/Instagram Offer ridiculously cheap writing services on platforms like Fiverr Write whatever you want And publish your unpolished work every day Voilà - that's your path to.. a disaster. 😅 Seriously: It breaks my heart to see writers and creators wasting their time on ridiculous strategies and platforms every single day. Here's the truth...
