"Writing is hard, you're taking a bunch of grey matter in your brain, pushing it through your fingers and trying to tickle someone else's soul with your words." Damn, gurl! I need to talk like you, deliver my speech like you.
I haven't found many people who break down the basics like this, and as someone who is switching careers with zero experience, this content is exactly what I need. I just got hired for my first paid blog post, and this is great for wrangling all the ideas swimming in my head.

Hey Erin Collins, am a new writer Please I really want to discuss somethings with you🙏
Closing remark at ...13:46 "Don't be too hard on yourself, writing is hard, you taking a bunch of grey matter in your brain pushing it thro' your fingers trying to tickle someone else's soul with your words, is the hard thing to do and even if you're trying that's amazing." I had to quote this Zulie, you are an amazing Author.
after watching many videos, Someone at last SHOW the template what to write when you start writing your blog.Thank you!!!
Published my first blog last week, and followed the proposed structured, and it worked so well. Love the idea of breaking things up in a laying it out in a logical order, then keep on refining until reaching a well formed blog. Thanks Zulie!
Your articles are amazing, maam! It's an honour to have such wonderful lessons from one of my favourite writer 🖤
Thank you for this, and I strongly agree with what Tom Kuegler said when he introduced you at the start of a recent interview with you. Out of all people who write about Medium, you offer the most value and it feels like you are giving your 100%! Thank you :)

Very cool idea. I usually work off of bullet points. I remember when I wrote an article for a major magazine years ago. The editor did not like the direction and just responded with a bunch of questions that he wanted answered in the article. So, using the Socratic method and just asking a bunch of questions about the subject you are writing on is another great way to find a structure.
This video is SO helpful! I've watched it twice, actually, so I could write everything down! I also downloaded your templates, so detailed and even more helpful, I recommend them to anyone watching these videos who suffers from writer's block like I do. Your templates just might save my life! 😉😄🙏🙏🙏

This is so helpful, Zulie, thank you. I'm going to use this strategy to write my next article. I already started to write similar to your template, but this is really amazing!
Thanks for putting this together. I've been entertaining the idea of writing more often (instead of just journaling) and was looking for example outlines to introduce some structure to my writing. I like that your outline breaks things down into three simple areas of focus. It might even be a good exercise to use the finished article as a starting off point for an even more in-depth essay. Cheers, and thanks again! 😊
This was insanely useful! I love a simple, yet comprehensive structure.

Hey Zulie. Quick question. Can you import a blog you wrote and published on Medium to your Squarespace blog without having to rewrite it on Squarespace?

I don't think that works. But you can do it the other way around. Just make sure to use a canonical link in that case!
