I like the idea of sharing a story AND something actionable related to developing creative and emotional freedom, but I think it's still a little clunky. Welcome any feedback.
I'm struggling. I've been starting these off with a PSST and find myself discovering a new direction midway and following that inspiration. Not sure if I need to be more disciplined or..? What's not working is to finish these posts in an hour. I need at least twice that right now. Again, would love your input. Thanks!
Hi Laurie, I've had a read and honestly a little confused. I don't see how the story about kissing at camp relates to the work you're trying to promote. The segway isn't clear to me unfortunately.
This is what I was worried about. I'm wondering about turning this post into two distinct pieces. It's clear to me what the takeaway would be for the mental flexibility piece, but what's not yet clear is the point and takeaway of the first kiss piece. Thanks for reading, Kaz!
I would absolutely split the two into the fine pieces they have the potential to become. Also can I suggest you change the beginning of the kissing story with less lead up and more action, then backtrack?
One thing I've realised after countless reading hours, observing publications is this fact. You have 15 seconds to grab your audience. Which equates to the first short paragraph. Scary right? You've got all the right personalised component, just need a sharper hook at the beginning honey.
I've been utilising the publishing component of medium to guide me on what hooks a new audience person, what generates a highlight, what gets me published. Seriously thank you @Shaunta Grimes for this gift of BYOB because my writing has improved exponentially! 9/10 pieces are now being published and generating income. I am so grateful
