This. This is important for good #storytelling.

My other personality is doing a thing. Would love to see you there if you're into it and stuff.

I've seen platforms that do full marketing automation for online courses, solid forum providers, or things like Mighty Networks/Circle. But not anything that does the public website/blog + private community combo? At least not at an accessible price point. #CommunityDevelopment

Looking for help, tweeters! I seek a community platform that has both public-facing/SEO-optimised website & blog + a private community with private groups & online courses in a social media rather than forum style. Anything you'd recommend? (Or anything that's a definite no-go?!)

I wrote to LinkedIn to tell it I'm back. Let's see if it notices. https://t.co/t5ccDI6TEq

Had to turn off my DMs because honestly the amount of shitty spam I’m getting since the new regime moved in is 🤯🤯

A round up of writing advice from famous (mainly SFFH) writers:

Can Authors Use Fake Names? The case for a pseudonym:

I've been on the SEO content train for The Horror Tree and written a few articles about the practice of writing. Two are now up for the delight of your algorithm & in the thread below.

I am so bad with money that my family will laugh at the idea of me leading this event... Tomorrow at noon UK time I'll interview money expert Peter Komolafe about supporting employees with their financial health - an especially important topic right now. Free & open to all!

Good news everyone. I have some unexpected availability in November and December, so I've reopened my books. Need help with blog posts / web copy / longer-form content this side of Christmas? Hit me up 👉 https://t.co/RxPZ969Z8d

London writers: I’ve had a last-minute drop-out for a @26characters writer in residence at the @bloomsburyfest. Need someone to cover wed 19/10 - but you need to be a 26 member (or willing to join). Free tix! Publishing opp! Great fun to be had! Please help 🙏

These days I run a community (p/t) to support better mental health at work - and we're *going there* this week. I know this can be a triggering subject for many (me included!), but if you have views or want to learn more about workplace fertility policies, we'd love to have you.

Also, I really wish the crypto & NFT scammers would stop sliding into my DMs on this account.

This time next week, my lovely hubby @CaravanAwesome will be running REALLY FAR for a good cause - he’s doing the @LondonMarathon for @Shelter, which is unfortunately in increasing demand. If you have anything spare please consider sponsoring him:

This sounds like a very good reason to not bank with @Metro_Bank, fellow small business owners! @MetroBank_Help your customer has told me about this & it’s ridiculous in this day of international biz. Why withhold the money paid to an invoice? Surely you can sort this quicker?

(I’m far from a monarchist btw - I was on the other side during the Australian republic referendum - but all content marketing needs to be mindful of the audience’s mood and appetite)

Quick reminder to marketers in the UK: you might want to review or pause any scheduled content/posts you have ready to go out. News is looking grim, and you don’t want to be the one shouting about new widgets when there’s a period of national mourning…

I’m not often in this account these days, but when I do pop on and see the #contentclubuk peeps in my feed, it makes me wistful for days of old.

Excited to be speaking to @adamwoodhall this arvo about dealing with climate anxiety by taking action. It's all part of the @themindsatwork community conversations. Join us and join in:
