disregard digital validation and don't let numbers be a gauge of how well you're doing. starting out with a small and loyal reader base is way more important than having a million subscribers

The best advice I have is to just keep writing and posting. Act like you have a large audience and address that huge audience in every post. Then, share each newsletter on twitter or x or threads and Instagram to get people who are already cheering you on can read/subscribe/etc. It takes time but idk I love the little community I've built with my tv specific substack (which is about 150 subscribers in 2 years).

I love knowing that less than 10 people I know follow me on Substack. The algorithm is pretty decent & I love yapping to strangers

does anyone remember these little things? came across one recently when i was clearing out some junk. used to get sooooooo hype about these cuz they felt so high tech at the time. made me really appreciative of how easy it is to listen to music now on the go :)
