This is just what I needed to read Derek... The knowledge of what you've written here has always been there and in the past 2 months of actively working on Substack I've been able to get myself 3 paid subs and over 1,000 subscribers, but then again I still have this feeling of I'm not doing enough and that's where your article comes in thank you so much sir.
great post and I learned from it, some of it resonates with my writings, I feel I've gone through some progress since I started, but with the "how, what" I'm still puzzled. I ask my self, do I want to educate or entertain? and I'm more inclined to the first argument and yet, still not clear enough.
Really useful advice, thank you Derek . I especially liked start small, widen and choose something transformative.
Thanks Susan. Glad it was useful.

You’re making great progress Ral - keep it up. Always happy when I’m helping other writers.
Your article comes at the right time for me as I‘m reviewing my pub towards more clarity as well. Thanks for your strategic advice, Derek!
Good to hear from you Gunnar. Seeking more clarity is always a wise move.

This helped so much, Derek. Right from the first point.
I have a strong tendency to write about what I do at my job, but it's not really that interesting to me.
I am going to re-read this a couple more times so that it hits home.
It took me a while to fully digest all this, but I hope it gives you some good guidance.
