Writer, teacher, and podcaster David Perell posit that writing online represents one of the greatest opportunities the world has ever known. We now have the opportunity to freely talk about any topics we choose with a global audience.
He talks a lot about writing and his content is pure gold when it comes to writing. If you’re just starting, there’s no one better than David who can guide you to get started. I’ll share some of my favourites below.
During his 1-hour online workshop, David touched upon various frameworks, not just about writing, but also about learning as well. He shared his experience and approaches he uses to draw inspiration from various sources while writing. This video goes over one of the hot topics nowadays, which is writing on different online platforms like Twitter. He also shares some tips for engaging an audience on those platforms. I strongly suggest you watch this video and apply some of the frameworks.

You’ve been using Twitter all wrong 😲
My opinion is that Twitter's best feature is that it allows people to follow each other freely. What's great about Twitter is that it allows you to network with people you would not normally connect with. But you have to be aware of some of its advanced features. Even I was until I read this thread!
