Hey Amar - you can check out how I use chat and threads - I really enjoy these spaces in my publication as I'm fuelled by co-creation and super charged by working with other creatives. https://sparkleon.substack.com/t/threads - my threads are always about peeling back the layers and nuance - they seem to find the right people at the right time and it's not always about high engagement - remember people can be having a quiet response to your questions without us ever knowing...
A lot of the time people have blocks to engagement. For example they are reading in email not the app, they need a reminder, they don't want to go first (I always write the first comment and pin it), they don't feel like they know what to say in the moment, they don't feel their answer is sophisticated enough...
Phrases like - "all thoughts welcome" can really help with building trust and intimacy.
What do you think?
Get advice, Claire. I know some people have returned to some pieces as they aren’t ready to comment or add on. I’m like this too. I read most things that move me at least three times before commenting. The longer personal essays in particular are so nuanced, I need to sit with the thoughts and find my place in it all.
Ps Chat is undiscovered territory for me but I will explore a few ✌🏾
