CollabLite is back: Jump into the comments and share a post.
Welcome back to “CollabLite” on CollabStack! These opportunities are designed to help us support one another in the collaborative spirit without having to commit to a big collaborative project (hence why it is called CollabLite).
I’m bringing back our usual “Share a post” opportunity first (with the intention of eventually doing a post/thread for Notes as well). In the comments below, I invite you to share one of your long-form posts or articles so we can amplify it and get inspired by your work. While you may most often see threads to promote and share your Notes, I created this because our longer posts deserve as much love as our Notes do.
How to Participate
Find a post (recent or deep in your archive) that you are proud of and perhaps wish had gotten more engagement.
Head into the comments and share with us:
The topic of the post (Keep it simple for easy scanning—perhaps 3-4 words)
Who could benefit from reading this post
A link to the post
Browse the comments from other writers until you find a post that intrigues you. Read it.
Engage with the post. You could:
Like or comment on the post
Restack it, sharing an insight you took away from the piece
Consider cross-posting it to your own publication
You can do this with as many posts as you’d like. If you’re inspired by several of them, go for it!
(Note: While replying to the author here in the comments is great, we want to amplify each other’s voices, so try to also write it as a Note with a restack of the author’s post.)
More Opportunities to Connect
The Q2 Call for Collaboration is still open! Check out the comments on the post linked below to meet other writers looking to collaborate.
Hi, I’m Marcy Farrey (pronounced Fairy 🧚♀️ ), and I’m on a mission to help others connect and collaborate in meaningful ways here on Substack. Consider me your Farrey 🧚♀️ Godmother of Collaboration!
If you love CollabStack, it would mean so much to me if you shared CollabStack so more people can participate. This will help our little community grow. Thank you for your support!
Thanks, Marcy!
