Notes
This is an insightful article about succeeding with a Substack publication. One quibble: I feel like a better takeaway on this one point would call out the 50-60 hour/week total, not the 8 hours of writing time. People should expect it to be a more-than-full-time job.
“Rob says he spends ‘the majority of his waking hours - maybe 50 to 60 hours a week’ on his publication. He also says he spends 8 hours per week writing, re-writing and editing. The rest is ‘reading, thinking, note-taking…’ etc. Yup, eight hours. Wow. Takeaway: A popular and high-earning publication does not need dozens of hours of writing time each week.”
