Hi ,
Smart and savvy writers are always looking for new ways to share their work with readers.
These same writers are also often on the lookout for exciting opportunities to connect with other writers.
That's why I am excited to share with you the latest episode of The Writing Coach podcast.
In this episode (episode 99 y'all!), I speak Sydney Liu, the co-founder of
Commaful.com.
Commaful a storytelling site where people go to share and discover fiction. The site is home to hundreds of thousands of fanfics, short stories, and poems, all shared in a picture-book style format.
Sydney loves thinking about the intersection of art, technology, and storytelling and is always down to hear a great story. During our discussion, he describes:
- Why a desire to encourage his friends to read his writing was the original inspiration for the Commaful platform
- How Commaful differs from traditional blogs and other social media platforms
- The unique ways in which the platform combines visual media with fiction storytelling and poetry
- What he and his co-founder are doing to ensure the Commaful community remains supportive of artists and writers, and is able to avoid toxicity
- How Commaful is using contests to put the spotlight on new writers, as well as attract diverse voices
- Which genres are most popular on Commaful
- How Commaful is helping authors promote their books and find a community
- And much more!
I know you will enjoy it!
Your pal in writing,
Kevin T. Johns, writing coach
