This was useful. The best Notes are usually not the smartest ones, just the most human.

True. Can be anything. Just a photo, a sentence, an anecdote. At the same time, as Kristi pointed out, it has to do with community bulding so if you give give give meaning restack, connect and like and add your two cents to a dicussion, it's more liekly people share your story. With Nora's it now stand at more than 1200 and she's p´replying to everyone.

Honestly, I didn't dare to be anything except myself. I don't know how to be anyone else and I believe everyone can do well on notes. There's no strategy or template for being human! I'm just incredibly active within my community and I write interesting stories that people want to read. Anyone can do this without a template. Just flex your humanity muscle. Simple.

Often people feel stuck. This is why I love your story so much as it shows how writing on Subsatck or any plaform can change your whole life and trajectory.

How much time do you spend on Substack and community building these days? I remember the time when community on Medium was everything but all we had were the comments. I t was nice then to meet people via Zoom for the first time. Now with Lives etc. there are so many possibilities. I also think everyone can do well on Notes. I think Nora is a great example with the story about her father or all the beginners just sharing they are new to Substack.

I listened to an interview that was about the Substack Trap. Meaning is becoming a whle social media platform. However if it's fine to create in that bubble that is Substack I think it's still cool.

And Notes is turning 3 in a few days.It become a threenager ^^ let's see , besides sponsorhips, pushing big accounts + algo changes etc, what's gonna come. HAPPY EASTER, Kristi!
