         A year in and the discussion threads continue, with writers learning and navigating a new chapter for online publishing. Together through Office Hours, Substack writers have authored advice for the future.

        <p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
         In 1997, Chicago Tribune columnist Mary Schmich wrote an essay as a hypothetical commencement speech entitled “
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Advice, like youth, probably just wasted on the young.
         </a>
         ” Going viral, the essay was adapted and shared as a spoken word song by Baz Luhrmann. “
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen)

         If we could offer you only one tip for the future, connecting with each other would be it. The long term effects of engaging have been proved by data scientists whereas the rest of our advice has no basis more reliable than our own meandering experience. On behalf of the writers of Substack, we will dispense this advice now:
        </p>
        <p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Don't wait for your writing to be perfect, or the time to be just right
         </a>
         . Neither will happen. Your publication will likely be quiet for a while. Keep going anyway.
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Building something good takes time
         </a>
         . The only real short cut is luck, and that’s no real strategy.
        </p>
        <p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Don't try to do this alone
         </a>
         . The actual writing part usually has to be done alone, with distractions turned off and a faintly unhealthy supply of coffee to hand. There's usually no getting around that. But the part where you're coming up with ideas, or trying to think bigger and bolstering your confidence and hopes...don't try to do that just by sitting by yourself. If you need the door closed when you're writing, try flinging it open when you're not.
        </p>
        <p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
         Learn wildly. Connect madly. Allow yourself to be corrected. Being gracious in the face of criticism is a good way to take the venom out of it. And make lots of good friends who are doing something like what you're doing.
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          As writers
         </a>
         , we are all in this together so we need to do our best to help each other grow and succeed.

         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Slow and steady is entirely normal growth
         </a>
         . Some people come to Substack with an enormous platform already. Some people grow very quickly for a variety of reasons (very few of which are actually controllable). The vast majority of us just plug along, trying different things, without ever having insane overnight success. Doesn't mean you can't be successful, it just means "slow and steady" is entirely normal growth, and success is subjective and depends on your own personal newsletter and goals.

         It's hard but just keep writing good copy during the plateaus. They too will end.

         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Dive deep into your niche
         </a>
         . The average person on the street may not understand the appeal of your Substack, but you'll gain loyal subscribers and face less competition than if you go mainstream.

         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          Remember: engagement is not just likes and comments
         </a>
         , but also conversations
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          between you and your reader in their inbox
         </a>
         . Ask questions. Propose ideas. Agree. Disagree. Agree to disagree.

          Be careful with the advice you take to heart and put in practice.

         Each week on Thursdays, we gather the writer community and members of our Community, Product, and Writer Development teams together in a written discussion thread
         <a rel="nofollow ugc noopener" style="color: #1a1a1a; text-decoration: underline;">
          like this one

         to answer writer questions for an hour.

         Whether you are returning to the thread to celebrate one year of Office Hours or joining for the first time, we hope to see you today. Together we will answer your questions on publishing, growing, or going paid on Substack.
