3 For Write3: Remain Anonymous

Good Morning Write3 Family!

Welcome to another edition of the Write3 Newsletter, where each week I explore the intersection of web3 and writing. Here's what's on tap for this Thursday:

•1 Write3 Tip
•1 Write3 News You Can Use
•1 Literary NFT Worth Collecting

1. Write3 Tip - If You Want to Be Collected, Become A Collector

A question I receive frequently is this: "How can I increase the reach of my writing collectibles & sell more copies?" My answer is always the same: Start collecting! This approach serves a dual purpose for you as a writer:

Firstly, stepping into the shoes of a collector allows you to understand what motivates a collector. What captures your attention? What compels you to mint? Once you uncover these truths for yourself, you unlock insights to inform your own creations.

Secondly, this strategy allows you to deepen your connections within the Write3 community. Our core strength is mutual support. So, what better way to bolster this than by collecting work yourself? Here are three quick collecting tips to get you started:

Don't let your budget hold you back. Numerous creators offer their work at modest prices, and some even for free. Check out Objkt.com for plenty of high quality literary NFTs at affordable prices.
Want to know where to find the lates Write3 creations, quickly and easily? Keep yourself updated with this curated Write3 Creators Twitter list (currently 70+ strong).
Embrace diversity. Incredible digital writing pieces are available across a range of chains. Here's my challenge to you: Mint on a new chain this week. (And remember, I'm always here to lend a hand, just drop me an email!)

2. Write3 News - Paragraph Introduces Anonymous Messaging

Today's Write3 Newsletter Is Being Sent To Both Emails & Wallets

Anonymity is at the heart of web3 and crypto. For many in the web3 space, preserving our identities from corporations and government is of paramount importance. Crypto wallets promise an interface with commerce without disclosing our identity. But, what about communication? Can one remain anonymous while receiving desired information?

Until recently, achieving this was quite a challenge. This week, however, Paragraph has collaborated with XMTP to unveil secure messaging for crypto wallets. In an exciting first for the Write3 newsletter, today's edition will be dispatched to a list of wallets, in addition to email addresses.

I'm thrilled by this innovation! Here's a big round of applause to Colin Arms and the entire Paragraph team for this remarkable upgrade.

3. A Literary NFT Worth Collecting - The 7 Love Stories

This week, we don't have one, but seven literary NFTs that warrant your attention. Rionna Morgan's series of stories bring together art, sound, and storytelling, culminating in a pioneering piece of literary fiction. Rionna is an icon in the Write3 movement, and it's an honor to hold one of her extraordinary stories in my collection.

**Reminder: By collecting today's newsletter, you'll be minting a unique piece of Write3 art. Your support enables me to continue doing what I love, and for that, I am deeply grateful. Happy collecting!
