Dear Karen, could you do an Article how us newbies can montenize our Substack Newsletter? And what is the difference between a Newsletter and an Article, or are they the same?

I have been wanting to make a hero post since you suggested it when you did your very helpful audit of my newsletter, Karen. I finally made it and I'm excited about how it looks. I couldn't decide if I should put my logo or my face as the pinned photo, and eventually decided on the logo because it shows my artwork. I'm not sure if that was the right decision. 🌸 Maybe I'll try the other way as well and see how it feels.

Best advice I read! I pin whatever I want to put more focus on. Right now it’s my challenge :)

Hi Cherry 🍒 I love Cherries by the way-- anyway ~ I appreciate all your help and have applied most all. THANK YOU!! One thing I want to say is what you said about our HOME PAGE FEATURE "THE PEEPS/SUBSCRIBERS THAT CAN ONLY TAKE 4 SECONDS to FIND PEEPS/WRITERS AND SUBJECTS" that they may be interested in??? You are right....but it stinks. (Not you - remember I love Cherries - but the average Attention span!

Do I want them? Do I care? I am not sure...I know it's the social media way - but it holds little value ~ Also, what do you think about The whole FOLLOWER verses the SUBSCRIBER?? - OMG! What is that? Too scared to COMMIT?? WHAT? TO FREE WRITING? And engagement? I am just not sure Substack needed to throw in FOLLOWER- again - same energy as the 4 second human ATTENTION SPAN - AH geez,......I'm smelling bird poop...TWITTER.

BUT Thank you Cherry!!!!!!!
