Let's cut through the chase - here's what new writers and creators are asking me most often right now:

Where should I publish?
Do I need to be on social media to grow my audience?

Can new writers still build an audience on Medium?

Do I need to be on Substack AND have a separate newsletter too?

Well, the honest answer is it depends.

There's no perfect creator stack (and anyone who is selling you one is lying.)

Your ideal path depends on your preferences and goals.

But as someone who has been writing online for 7 years and has helped thousands of writers grow their audiences, I do believe that Substack is an underrated platform for many creatives right now.

I started my first Substack publication in 2020 but left the platform because it lacked discovery features.

In 2024, I came back FOR the discovery features they had built in the meantime!

I'm talking about Notes, Recommendations, and dozens of collaboration options.

Substack is so much more than a writing or newsletter platform right now.

It's a powerhouse for creators, experts, and creative minds who want to build a simple yet highly profitable business.

And I want to make it EASY for you to take advantage of the platform.
