Hi darling,

My pleasure! I finally got around to write an in-depth article about the Ulysses app, showcasing my workflow before and after, listing the pros and cons, features, how it works, etc.

This is one post very much interlaced with a more intimate insight into how I write / my system as a writer, both for my blog and my fantasy books, so if you're curious how I mastered my workflow go ahead and check it out.

I also included some snapshots of my setup (theme matching my pink aesthetic of course), perhaps it will inspire other writers to replicate my system and see if it works for them. There is a 2 week free trial, so really you've got nothing to lose by testing the waters.

Personally, I'm in love. I have a billion folders neatly organized, color-coded and icon-customized exactly as I want...

Have a great day ahead fellow writer, and don't be a stranger. Let me know how your progress unfolds! ✏️✨

When I don't know how else to cope, I write it out. I write through the pain, through the healing, through the grief. I write until the chaotic mess of everyday mundane life is untangled and made sense into an order that works for the universe in my mind, the imaginarium in my soul. I write until everything makes sense again and I'm liberated by the burden of feeling lost, of flowing in currents alien to me; I realize that I have always been and will always be the heroine of my story, and nothing can ever change that. When I write, I'm both the writer and the written, I am both the story and the hero.

📚 I'm on Medium.com! 📚

There are people out there in this very moment who are in need of your story, your experience, your voice, your energy, that one work of art or book or course or anything else that only you can create. You owe it to both yourself and the universe to show up as your most authentic self, to serve the world with your truth, your magic, your potential. It is your legacy. Make it something you'll be proud of at the end of it all.

January: Day 20 From a fitness & health perspective, what does your highest self look like? Keep in mind this is about only improving the health of your existing body, not drastically altering its appearance via surgery or other invasive procedures. How fit is your best self - lean like a ballerina, or strong and muscular like a professional athlete? Is she inbetween? In other words, is her focus on agility, strength, or overall light fitness? What does her daily diet (diet as in meal plans, not as in restrictive eating) consist of? What physical activities does she incorporate into her life: yoga, dancing, jogging, weight-lifting, cardio, etc? Defining your ideal fitness goals is the first step to leveling up your body's health, while keeping in mind that these goals should work with your body and should be sustainable and as enjoyable as possible - otherwise, it will not be sustainable long-term because there's no joy in it. 

How To Write Magnetic Content As A New Blogger (Blogger Series)

So you’ve just finished setting up your blog, now what? There are 5 key things you need in order to make sure your blog is set up for success by creating magnetic content for your new audience. Let’s get right into it!

1. Authenticity

The most important thing you need in order to write magnetic content as a new blogger is authenticity. But what do we mean by authenticity exactly? It means that the value and information you provide to your audience is done so with integrity. It’s not just an ad for a product that you have zero association or belief in.

All the products, services and things you recommend, by default you are associating them with your brand, so if you’re filling your blog with things you don’t believe in, readers will know. If you were in their position, you wouldn’t want to be underestimated either would you? You’d want quality content, not just someone who’s in it for the monetary gains alone. There’s nothing wrong with monetizing your business, your blog, whatever you’re passionate about doing, but it is important to do it with authenticity  – that way you’re setting yourself up for success down the line!

Otherwise, if you’re not exercising caution and setting standards and principles about what you’ll present on your blog, this may become a liability down the line in terms of your reputation and brand. That’s why it’s better to stay on track from the start and not shoot yourself in the foot.

2. Confidence

As humans, we are naturally drawn to strong-minded people who boldly claim their path, we look up to them and admire them because in the end, we all aspire to reach the same level of confidence.

Confidence is magnetic, it relays to others that you... Read more
