As I finished the draft for yesterday’s post, I packed up my laptop to leave the office when I noticed an unusual amount of traffic on one of my posts.
Initially, I was too busy prepping for my seven-year-old son’s assessment meeting, so I briefly scanned the interactions and prepared to share the link to my book with those expressing interest. I tapped the screen once, twice—then froze.
The account sharing my post ended in Kardashian, but I didn’t believe it until I clicked through and saw 308 million followers!
Now, I’m not gonna pretend I Keep up with the Kardashians religiously, but my wife made me sit through many episodes in the past. Also, I love the NBA—I’ve followed Lamar since his Clippers days—so I’m familiar with who Khloé is.
And now, a video of me reading an excerpt from my book was sitting on her Instagram story.
So naturally, today’s post is late—because I changed my number, of course. New newsletter, who’s this?
No, but honestly, I spent ages trying to sort out my auto DMs and reply to my messages. I’m telling you, now my writing has the Kardashian stamp of approval, it’s defo going to be worth something one day.
On a serious note, sometimes, in the vast world of the internet, it feels like you’re writing to no one—95 percent of the time, you are. But that’s not a reason to stop.Writing lives forever. You never know who might stumble across it or whose life it could change.It’s not about celebrity endorsements, but I’ve learned that writing can take you across the globe, into the hearts of millions, or simply be a place for you to return and admire how far you’ve come.
So keep writing, people! Walks off to sign his reality TV deal
