Hey there,
You didn't open my last email. I guess you're not interested at all in writing? If that's the case, you may want to unsubscribe because this is a heavy focus of mine now.
And don't think this newsletter is ever just about me; it's more about you and where things are headed.
I've been at this "online marketing" thing for twenty plus years. No joke.
And the ONE THING that's remained consistent--and uber-important--throughout is the ability to write.
Not just write. Hell, you can probably type...but can you write compelling emails and sales copy and blog posts that...
GET THE CLICK?
Maybe. Maybe not. (And apparently, I couldn't get you to click OPEN for the last email...so...d'oh!)
Any who, improving your writing should be your #1 goal ALL. THE. TIME.
It IS the most important skill you can learn.
Period.
Now, what you missed:
Wanted to let you about three things:
- Medium Writers Group is still open. It's a Facebook group you can join if you're a writer on Medium. The group is growing and I'm sure at some point in the near future, I'll close it, but for now, it's open. Check it out here:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/mediumwritersgroup
- I've started a new publication called "In Real Life." I talk about all sorts of stuff in there (besides politics--that's what Facebook is for!). Give it a read here:
https://medium.com/in-real-life-irl
- I wanted to mention another publication called "Dubium." I'm writing there, too. The stories there are much more "cerebral" than what I usually write. The writers there are a lot smarter than I am :P
That's it. I'm still finding my bearings on the platform, but I'm having fun. You should give it a whirl if you're an aspiring writer.
See you next time!
