Sometimes, when you stare at the blank screen, it stares right back at you. You will fall into an abyss of thoughts typing nothing at all. Maybe I wasn’t consuming content enough or maybe I just let everything out during those resting days last week. I’m not sure either.
Recently, I saw an ad. Something about the best X articles winning a million dollars. It was exciting tho. tbh! The same feeling I got when I first found out that people actually reading substack newsletters, building audiences, making it work.
So now the question is, Should I switch platforms? Or should I just stay here and write for the soul of it? One thing I know for certain is that people love to read. It doesn’t matter if it’s on medium, substack, a personal blog, instagram, x or a paperback. Good writing finds its readers.
Yet the paradox never leaves me. Do I write for the kitchen (the money, the metrics, prizes) or for the soul (truth, the thing that made me write in the first place)? Should I chase the answer or stay curious with the question and let the answer find me? This is the million dollar question every writer ignores!
The blank screen is still staring btw!
Cheers!
