The Substack Monthly Writing Challenge - October 2024
What is it?
It’s a challenge for writing.
But not just writing.
It’s built to help you apply everything from the Write2Sell column in practice. Because learning how to do things is nothing if you don’t apply what you learn.
So, in this challenge, we’ll apply things in practice.
How?
Every month we’ll have a dedicated theme from the two elements:
Writing
Relationship building
October Theme: CONSISTENCY in writing
We’ll start with the basics and we’ll build upon them. In October, we’re starting with writing and the goal is to build consistency.
Each month we’ll be focusing on a new element from writing and/or relationship building.
What do you need to do?
Write at least one post for your Substack and send it as an email to your subscribers
