"Because the difference between a writer and an author is a platform. Writers write, but authors also share and claim their work. I've been a writer since I learned the magic of turning crayon scratches and paper into stories. Writing is a joy as well as a job - at least when it's going well. Authorship is . It comes with rewards. I experience a deep sense of satisfaction when readers engage with my words, but it requires conscious positioning of my work."
"I needed to grow an audience and claim my corner of the internet - and I didn't know about beehiiv yet. I required a website and turned to WordPress as the best-known option. After my third WordPress-induced migraine, I should have changed course. Instead, I succumbed to the sunk-cost fallacy. I can't stop now. I've already put so much time into this. Mistake."
Writers write; authors also share and claim their work. Writing can be both joyful and demanding. Authorship delivers satisfaction when readers engage, but requires conscious positioning of work and ongoing, chore-like upkeep. Building a website with WordPress proved time-consuming and frustrating, leading to sunk-cost fallacy and multiple days of full-time work to launch a bare-bones site. Constant relearning was required to adjust details and add content. Social media efforts consumed time without preferred engagement. beehiiv enables audience growth, monetization, consistent publishing, and simpler site management. beehiiv was chosen to launch the novel Murder on the Aerial.
