I loved this week's newsletter! It was refreshing to hear, "yeah, same, this quarter was hard" but to still walk away from reading this encouraged by others' joy in their work and inspired to experiment and try something new. Thanks for an encouraging word this week!

I really enjoyed this week's newsletter and could relate heavily! My favourite part of my job is definitely doing customer case studies and learning how people actually use our product. It also enables me to tell a story and it's my love of stories that got me into writing in the first place. I agree that human content is the way to go - for engagement from your readers and the writer. Another favourite part of my past quarter was working on scripts for videos and trying to add human stories to them to make them more memorable and relatable. (I also work in software and the videos are largely about how to use the software, which can be quite a dry subject.)

Usually I'm not the biggest fan of crowdsourced posts but this one was done well. I often see crowdsourcing as a tactic for repurposing content which can come across repetitive, shallow and inconsistent thematically. Tbh I am totally bias since my comment was featured 😅 but I sincerely love the takeaways you added that make this article feel collaborative and constructive. Thanks for sharing!
