May Newsletter Topic Ideas + Co-Writing
Camille Freeman
April 30, 2024
Hi there.
At the start of each month, I share a few topic ideas for newsletter writers and an invitation to our monthly co-writing/peer feedback session. Co-writing is available for paid subscribers.
May is a time of transition for many people: schools are winding down, it’s graduation season, and wedding season is around the corner. If any of these are relevant to your newsletter readers, write about how you find calm amidst chaos [at the end of the school year/when your child is leaving for college/etc.] or something similar that may help folks during this period.
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month and Skin Cancer Awareness Month. Do you have a personal or professional connection to any of these? Pick one and tell a story about how it relates to the work you do.
What’s one thing you’ve done to make summers easier or more fun? Share a tip or idea that’s worked well for you in the past and that might serve your readers as well.
May Co-Writing and Peer Feedback
Each month, paid subscribers have access to a live co-writing/peer feedback session + a peer feedback thread for those who want asynchronous feedback. This month’s co-writing session is tomorrow, May 1 from 7-8:30 pm ET.
During co-writing, we’ll spend about an hour writing/working on newsletters, and an additional half-hour giving and receiving peer feedback. Bring a draft of your newsletter to work on 🖤 (Note that co-writing is not instructional - it’s quiet time to work on your newsletter, followed by 30 min in small groups to give/receive feedback.)
