Happy Tuesday!
Weird, right? I never email you on a Tuesday! Just realized I forgot to add a cutoff day for submissions for our first group post in my last email. It’s looking great! We have a good collection of submissions here on substack and more via email.
I’m going to compile the post on Wednesday and publish Thursday (Jan 7) so if you’d like to join us, please post your submission today!
Quick recap if you missed the Jan 1 email. I’m doing a group post with a collection of writing tips from all of us and I’ll be promoting all contributors. Join us?
All the details are here:

Hi, Linda! Thank you for this constructive idea to start this new 2021 with shared tips! Where do I need to submit my little piece of advice? ... Happy prolific new year!🤗
Winder if what i suggest meets your intended project content outline:
Writers new to medium do not know how to navigate through drafting/ editing/ formatting/ networking processes. Takes time. Wonder if there’s a complete ‘how to’ video or story from the horse’s mouth.
Medium’s help is machine language and often fail’s to provide what is sought. Emails are not mostly replied. Writers may feel shy of asking new friends who came along the platform (like u for me), some stories put up on the subject do not address it all... etc
Like i yet struggle for basic simple things like :
How to pin/ tag/ reference my new story to my Medium followers. There’s one feature whereby you use ‘@‘ with the guy’s Medium name and it will flash a message to him. Fine. But where ? I didn’t know this yesterday and tried doing it where one ‘drafts’ a new story before finally tagging and posting/ publishing. In the process, a) I flashed a private message publicly ? & b) i used up all the day limit of posting new stories.. :). -silly and laughable true, but who will help me ?
I also do not how to insert a boxed link to my other stories
Etc
