These chats are fun. I've already made some progress towards my 'have stuff written in advance' goal, just need to keep the current writing momentum up, which thankfully isn't too intense.

Also, wasn't one of the follow up questions supposed to be revealed in this post? You can't get away with not telling me!

Thanks for writing this up Amran. And I especially liked your suggestion regarding the About page. I'm new on Substack and I had customized the About page a bit, but you made me realize that I needed to put more time into it. I missed the latest (October) Zoom but hope to get hooked into the next.

You're welcome, Victor! Yes, the About Page is crucial for telling readers what your Substack is all about. I'm actually planning to update mine again soon, particularly as my publication has evolved and taken new forms.

If you're just getting started, make sure to check out On Substack: https://on.substack.com/

There's tons of great resources plus links to weekly office hours, monthly shoutout threads, and much, much more. Good luck!
