What if building your writer platform didn’t have to feel fake, forced, or exhausting?

In this conversation with Kimberley Grabas, we talk about:
• Why most writers approach platform-building backward
• The difference between platform, branding, marketing, and tactics
• How to identify your ideal reader
• Why “niching down” can feel impossible for creative people
• How to market your work without becoming pushy or performative
• and why the best brands are built from authenticity, not imitation

One of my favorite moments was when Kimberley said creative people naturally resist being squeezed into “a tiny little box.” Instead of flattening your personality, a healthy platform helps you clarify what threads already run through your work.

This episode will especially encourage writers who feel overwhelmed by social media, unsure of their message, or afraid they have “too many interests.”

Watch now and let us know in the comments:
What part of building a writer platform feels hardest for you right now?

If you want to become a better writer… Read more. Not just to produce something. Not just to “get content.” But because over time, it builds something inside you.

A kind of file cabinet in your mind—filled with ideas, illustrations, and insights you didn’t even know you’d need. And when it’s time to write… you’re not starting from empty.

You’re drawing from a life that’s been paying attention.
