It’s time for August’s “CollabLite” opportunity! I send these every second Monday of the month, and they are an opportunity to support one another in the collaborative spirit (without having to do a big collaborative project).
In the comments below, I invite you to share a long-form post so we can amplify it and get inspired by your work! While we often see threads to promote our 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 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.)
Love this idea? Please consider sharing this post with your community. The more people participate, the more opportunities there are for collaboration.
More Opportunities to Connect
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!
