Don’t worry, this isn’t a ‘new year, new you,’ kind of post, it’s more of a ‘new year, new newsletter platform.’
Yep, I made the move to Substack.
If you get my Friday emails, this should hopefully make no difference to you other than the new logo I did at the top of the page. So why the change? Well I’ve a few new things I’m doing and for ages now I’ve not been sure how to offer them.
The Writing Planner
As I’ve got so many writing projects on the go next year, I needed a way to keep it all organized and designed The Writing Planner.
It’s going to help me focus, get stuff written and finished, and plan it all out so I don’t get burnout or overwhelm. It’s got sections for goal planning, monthly and weekly tasks as well as a content planning schedule.
Monday Muse
I had emails and DM’s asking me about this, a weekly email that would talk about new TikTok trends, audios, content ideas, ways to keep motivated and everything that I couldn’t fit into the Friday emails or on my social accounts.
Being on here allows me to get all of that together and send it to those that want it. And it’s quite fitting that the first of these Monday Muse emails will be right at the start of the year!
Self-Publishing Diaries
I don’t normally do resolutions, but after the last few months of 2022 got so busy with work (all through my own doing) it taught me that if I want to actually enjoy life, I need to focus on what I like doing, and surprise, do more of that.
So I’m embarking on a journey into self-publishing in 2023 and wanted a way to talk to it about those who were interested.
Those who might be toying with the idea of writing and publishing a book, but not sure where to start, and I thought we could kind of do it together.
By the way, I should point out that I haven’t written anything at all to self publish yet, but the marketing and research of writing a new book starts waaaaay before you begin to write it, so that’s why I’m writing about that journey now.
I want to be completely transparent in the process, from what it costs to how much I make, or don’t make, and so I needed somewhere people could opt into that journey if they wanted to.
So here I am. On this brand new platform and hoping it works out as I want it to. I love the idea of it being community-based, with commenting and sharing ideas, and I’m really excited for how it will grow and that you’re here as well.
I hope you’ll sign up to it all, but if you don’t these Friday emails will still be free and I’m grateful to be in your inbox at all!
For paying subscribers, I thought hard about the price and it works out at around the price of a coffee a week. So you can think of this as your writing and social media caffeine fix!
Here’s a 10% off and to a wonderful writing 2023 full of exciting adventures!
