Endless stories. Points to start off my articles. Sometimes I test them by writing them as Notes on Substack. And if they resonate, I build on them. Refining them into longer form articles.
Don’t look for big, sexy moments.
Most of the time,, they are unrelatable. I can’t relate to big action moments in a movie, but I can relate to the deeper meaning behind the action.
