Happy Sunday Writers,

How was your writing week? Did you accomplish what you wanted to accomplish? Did you write anything especially interesting? If so, consider submitting it here to the Second Act if your piece needs a publication to call home.

I’ve been writing daily and I am finding my flow. Writing on Medium is just plain fun, and I’m enjoying every second. My pieces have done pretty well this week, so I’m pleased with my progress. Here was one of my favorite pieces from the week.

This weekend I decided that I don’t want to spend any more time writing about Medium (right now). Writing about writing, yes, but not about the Medium platform. There is enough out there about how to do well on Medium and I don’t have anything to add to the conversation.

Instead, I want to work on my craft with personal essays. ICYMI, sign up for my list and get the free downloadable Craft Annotation exercise. It’s modeled after an exercise the amazing Roxanne Gay taught in a lecture.

Have a great writing week. I look forward to reading your work!

Creatively yours,
