Shoutout Thread 📢

This week, we’re taking a break from Office Hours for our regular Shoutout Thread.

We host Shoutout Threads because we know writers want more ways to discover great writing on Substack, and we’re always looking to celebrate writers who are finding a home here. Today we invite you to share what you’ve been reading and inspired by recently on Substack in Notes.

How to participate

1. General thread 📢

   We’ve posted a note from the

   Substack Writers
   account. We encourage you to reply with a shoutout for another writer you’ve been enjoying on Substack. Use @mentions so the writer is notified and others can easily find their publication. Bonus: Quote share a favorite line or passage from a recent post. Highlight text from the post and restack it as a note. Be sure to @mention
   Substack
   so we see it.

2. Calling all journalists ✏️
   Are you going independent for the first time or shifting your focus from working in traditional media to writing on Substack? We want to hear your story and help connect you to other writers taking a similar step. Reply in Notes to introduce yourself and let us know how you are using Substack.

Next week, we’ll be back with Office Hours to answer your questions on publish, growing, and going paid on Substack. Save it to your calendar so you don’t miss it.
