Are you a blogger?
or an online writer?
WARNING: I am not selling anything here.But I share your problem and I am proposing a solution.
Do you struggle to find readers?
Do you want to spend more time writing?
Instead of advertising your work!
Cool
We're on the same page, and have the same problem.

This is me, I'm John.
I'm an ex-Meta/Facebook machine learning engineer and data science manager.
I just wanted you to know that I'm a real person (see LinkedIn below)
I post on my own blog and I run a newsletter too.
But I also struggle to find my audience and get my work read by others.
I've tried getting 'good' at social media to share my work - it takes forever, and doing that takes me away from writing.
I've tried platforms such as Medium and LinkedIn Artciles - but I don't like been behind someone else's paywall, readership is still low AND I want to own that relationship with my readers.
There has to be a better way!
