Common Measure - Join my new subscriber chat
Today I’m announcing a brand new addition to my Substack publication: the Common Measure subscriber chat. This is a conversation space in the Substack app that I set up exclusively for my subscribers — kind of like a group chat or live hangout. I’ll post short prompts, thoughts, and updates that come my way, and you can jump into the discussion. To join our chat, you’ll need to download the Substack app (messages are sent via the app, not email). Turn on push notifications so you don’t miss a chance to join conversation as it happens. How to get started
I’ve already started my first chat thread so come on over and say hello! |
