Please come to the pub and read the stories of your colleagues. Supporting each other in our writing is important to building community, but …

Reading how others handle a challenge grows us in ways we can’t expect. This is by far, the easiest, cheapest education we’ll ever get.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Latest Update:

Please make sure your story, excluding title, subtitle, and image caption, is EXACTLY 100 WORDS. To do this, highlight the story copy only and in the upper left corner, you’ll see Medium’s word count. That’s how we determine the word count.

We are getting a lot of stories that are over or under the word count. Your editors like to write stories much more than private messages about word count. So, please, please, please check it before you submit.

Medium’s count varies from Word, Pages, and Google Docs. Check it on Medium before submitting.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

If you submit your story early, it will be scheduled to publish at 8:30
