I love these tips. Simple yet they don’t feel daunting in a way that other platforms feel. I’m loving getting back to writing and building an engaged community is definitely something I wanna focus on. Not just the numbers and growth

Great post. You’ve inspired me to make the effort to post notes daily. I think my PTSD from other social platforms has translated into the same thing here on so I have to get over it. Here’s hoping Substack really is different.

There's something about the way they are all looking at the “camera” that's super creepy 😆 Definitely caught my eye though and stopped my scroll! Looking forward to reading.

Haha I sure hope so. For your sake.

Worst case I'll sneak you into my club. My AI and I are buddies.

At this stage, it allows itself to insult me.

Although I hear a lot of people talk about starting conversations and DMs, and I believe it can definitely create deeper connections. I still struggle to do it, even though I plan to. Maybe it’s because I’m an introvert :)). Btw, I’ll definitely push myself to give it a try.

I'll write an article on exactly how I do it and share the exact messages I send.

Then it will be A LOT less awkward :)
