Why I stopped posting every day

· 1 min read · by Maya Ortiz

For a year I posted something every single day. My follower count went up. My best ideas got thinner.

The switch

Now I write one thing a week, the Sunday letter, and only post when I have something to say. Fewer people see each post. More of them reply.

Try it for a month

Write one longer piece a week. Cut everything else. See what you miss. For me, it was nothing.

All writing
