Well, audio issues got the better of me this week, so no video today...but please enjoy this older video that talks about a trick I use for seeing my writing from a reader's perspective. Practically nobody's seen it, so it's almost as good as a new one!
Plus, get excited for National Poetry Month--coming to the channel on 1 April!

Now announcing channel memberships! Some of you have been asking if there were additional ways to support the channel, and now there are. Whether you become a channel member or not, thank you all for being a part of this growing community!

Are you looking for a supportive place to interact with writers, share your work, and get feedback from other members of the Writing with Andrew community?
Well, guess what? There's a Writing with Andrew Discord now:

It's definitely a work in progress, but you have to start somewhere 😁

No video this week, but enjoy this golden oldie about an article that has had a significant influence on my work. We'll be back to our regularly scheduled programming next week.

I was grading papers the other day when the subscriber count rolled past 10,000. Then I blinked, and there were over 1500 more of you. So this is just to say thanks--to all the new subscribers and also to the ones who have been around for a while. You make this a lot more fun, and there's plenty more to come!

What if we created an online space associated with the channel where writers (you) could share their work and get input and feedback from other writers (like a Writing with Andrew Discord server or something similar)?

Four years ago today, the first Writing with Andrew video went up. It's been fun to see the channel grow (2/3 of that growth has happened in just the last year!) and to have had so many interesting conversations about writing with you all. But we're just getting started: I've got some projects that I'm pretty excited about in the works for the next couple months--so stick around!
In other news, my buddy Dr. B started a channel dedicated to unserious ice cream experiments earlier this year. I've known him a long time (in fact, exactly as long as I've been alive), so, if you're looking to refresh your summer with some ice cream content, look no further than Dr. B's Creamery:

No video today (because learning and winter breaks shouldn't mix). But did you know that around 70% of the channel's views and new subscribers happened in the last 12 months? Huge thanks for deciding to stick around this year, and I'll see you in the next one for even more unfettered fun!

Make no friends--just keep the old:
one is silver; the other, a golden skull
who may or may not throw a tantrum if you have the audacity to make any new friends.
Till soon!
