Should I Start a Substack? What I Learned From Having One
I have a Substack.
I'm telling you that upfront because this post is not written from the outside looking in. I signed up a couple of years ago when I was taking a book proposal masterclass and the guide recommended having a Substack as part of the social media package publishers want to see. So I built one. I posted there. I put my podcast episodes there. I even used it as a newsletter for a while.
And the longer I'm on it, the more I realize it's the wrong home for my work.
