Happy Friday
Last Friday I wrote that I was thinking about making a publication for book lovers.
(Wow. That’s the most comments I’ve ever had.)
So I spent a chunk of weekend building it and Monday morning I opened it up to writers. By Thursday evening we hit 3000 HOURS of read time.
I feel a little bit stunned.
There was a snafu.
My initial thought had been to make every writer an editor so we can all publish our own book reviews. There’s a publication already doing that. It’s called The Partnered Pen. So it seemed like a good model to use for a book review publication.
Turns out — nope.
Rules changed. We can only have 30 editors now. Murphy’s Law. Turns out I was a glutton for punishment. I thought I was joking when I said that. lol.
But that’s okay.
With 30 editors, we can divide up the work. Anyone who doesn’t want the extra work (or have time for it) can be a writer, but not an editor.
I posted an update on Medium. (It’s here)
Mostly I wanted to say thank you. Your feedback is why I created it. And it’s looking like this little pub will be a very happy corner of Medium.
So thank you. I appreciate you.

Thank you for creating it! I’m currently a writer, but happy to be an editor if anyone drops out. Cheers!
You're doing great!
