Meet Cute

You should be kissed, and often, and by someone who knows how

The previews...

If you're reading this right now and you've already enrolled in How to write articles that will make your readers fall in love with you, feel free to disregard this email entirely.

Otherwise, keep reading.

The movie...

A meet-cute generally only happens in the movies.

It's a scene that depicts a charming first encounter between two previously unintroduced characters that eventually leads to a romantic relationship of some kind.

These scenes normally look something like this...

"

Jennifer, a painter living in Greenwich Village, runs home in the rain lugging a paper bag full of art supplies and a canvas the size of a small dinner table.

Too cumbersome to fit underneath her arm, she holds the canvas out in front of her like a shield, making her blind to everything in front of her save for her falling feet on the wet pavement.

When Jennifer rounds the corner, she hears a ferocious tear as she's knocked to the ground, along with her art supplies.

She opens her eyes to see her canvas upright with a man's head poking through, staring back at her wide-eyed, wet and confused––Jennifer screams, cursing the head for ruining her canvas.

Greg, the financial analyst––to whom the head belongs––screams and curses back at Jennifer for screaming and cursing at him.

The two keep arguing for a while when it suddenly occurs to Jennifer that while she can't see the rest of Greg's figure, he has a terribly handsome mug.

The conversation goes quiet. The rain continues to pour. Greg lifts the torn canvas off of his head, helps Jennifer up and then holds the shitty, make-shift umbrella above her to keep her dry as she collects her art supplies.

Finally, Jennifer says, "Would you mind if I paint you?"

"

Viola! Meet-cute.

I'm a helpless romantic. I love a good meet-cute. So much so, that if I weren't a writer, I'd run a company that creates orchestrated "meet-cutes" for couples that meet online.

Perhaps, in another life.

For now, I have to make my money writing, instead.

It's worth mentioning that the meet-cute stretches beyond the rom-com.

We experience meet-cutes every day on the internet as we fall in love with the many minds that inhabit it.

Learning to express yourself with the written word allows you to create hundreds of tiny meet-cutes between yourself (the writer) and others (the readers) who don't yet know who you are.

From Monday, October 31st to November 30th I will be running a month-long writing course taught entirely via email designed to make you the kind of writer that readers can't ignore.

In How to write articles that will make your readers fall in love with you, I teach you how to create meet-cutes with the written word, over and over again.

For the next 24 hours, this course will cost just $2/ day. Or, $62 for the month. Tomorrow, it will go up to $3/ day. Sunday, it will go up even higher to $4/ day.

So, don't stall.
