Writing is rewriting—but not everyone knows what to look for. I used to think that once I typed the final sentence, my piece was done.

Stop Trying to Hack Medium and Start Actually Writing
I’m writing this poolside, trying to get some deep work done before the pool cleaner showed up and killed my flow. But maybe that interruption was perfect timing because what I’m about to say might interrupt your flow too.

The Pressure to Go Viral: Writing in the Age of Algorithms
We're not just writing stories anymore…we're writing content. Do you remember a time before social media? Before going viral? Because I do. I remember when we didn't have to follow specific trends or algorithms just to get seen. But hey, it might be that I'm just a bit nostalgic today.
