[WILF Newsletter] What I Learned From… ????

Sharp thoughts. Deep dives. Creative mischief.

Writing is weird.
So is being a writer.


Writing is weird.
So is being a writer.

Every weekend(ish), I send out What I Learned From...
an email newsletter full of essays, tools, rabbit holes, and reflections for writers who want to sharpen their craft without losing their edge.

It’s part writing advice, part creative encouragement, part intellectual mischief. With zero fluff.

Sign up for What I Learned From [WILF] ... 
Lessons, language, and a weekly(ish) nudge to sharpen your craft (or at least laugh at the chaos of trying).

If you’ve ever rewritten the same sentence twelve times...Or stayed up past midnight because the words finally showed up...Or wondered if your writing even matters anymore...

You’re not alone.

Subscribe to get:

✍️ Original essays on craft, creativity, and unexpected lessons???? Literary deep-dives and links for readers who love research???? Tools and recs for writers who want to go deeper????️ Forgotten words, metaphors, and moments that spark new ideas???? And the occasional bit of chaos, because that’s part of the process

It’s about stories. Lessons. Craft. And the strange things we learn when we actually pay attention.

Curious what that looks like? Check out an archive of our past WILFs here!

LinkedIn comment by Simpy Harwani: “Here's a compliment I have been meaning to give to you. You are doing so great with the Craft Your Content newsletter! I loved one sooo much that I screenshot a part of it once and have saved it in my phone. Here it is:”

“I loved one sooo much I screenshot it and saved it in my phone.” —Simpy Harwani

Email from Holly: “Thank you for your newsletter. It is one of the few that I actually read. I agree with you on Taylor Swift. She was young and now she is wise. It’s her music to do with as she wants and sometimes we look back on a situation and change our perspective. Your newsletter provides a lot of value and I have really enjoyed it. Thank you for that. Holly.”

“It is one of the few newsletters I actually read.” —Holly

Screenshot of an email reply from Ashleigh Harvey to Elisa, sent Saturday, June 7 at 2:41 AM, in response to the WILF issue titled “Re: What I Learned From Urban Walls About Writing in Tight Spaces.” The message reads: “What a beautiful email. Thank you.”

"What a beautiful email"  — Ashleigh Harvey, West End Actress and The Rejection Expert

"I spoke with you a few times over the last year in regards to your wonderful e-mails, etc. and I truly look forward to yours more than anyone else in my inbox." - Ashley Derrick

"Thank you for this email - there is so much gold in here. The book synopsis alone are worth the price of admission." - Sam Browne

"I get so many newsletters (because there are so many fabulous business bloggers out there), but I always read yours end to end. " - Nicole Boucher


"damn that's good." - Dan Andrews

 

LinkedIn post by Jessica Malnik: “I'm looking to subscribe to a couple more email newsletters. Preferably in the marketing, copywriting, community building or entrepreneurship space. Some of my current favorites are from Ann Handley, Elisa Doucette, and Carrie Melissa Jones.”

“One of my current favorite newsletters.” — Jessica Malnik - Content Strategist & Copywriter

Email from Caroline Johnson: “I'll be honest...I get a lot of emails in my inbox. In fact, I've signed up for more writing-related emails than I can count. Another thing I'll be honest about is how many I end up deleting without even opening. TWR emails are the kinds of emails that I actually look forward to opening, read, and KEEP in my inbox. I go back to them when I need encouragement, reminders, or just want to read some of the wit and valuable content they contain. It's awesome.”

“Your emails are the ones I read, keep, and come back to.” —Caroline Johnson

P.S. WILF is part of IWF, a creative studio for writers who give a damn. Big things are coming, hence the alphabet soup.
Stay weird, stay sharp, stay creative.
