In my humble opinion, there are 8 UNBREAKABLE rules for good freelance self-care.

You can't do your job properly without 'em! buff.ly/3Keiniu

I’ve decided to dedicate an entire day of annual leave to Kevin Williamson.

My ‘Williamson-a-thon” shall take place tomorrow and may end with a Dawson’s Creek chaser.

I do nice things for myself. ☺️

I'm seeing #SCREAM6 on Saturday, so I thought I'd dig this gem back out. Because my love and admiration is everlasting.

Listen with sound for the full impact 😂

Aaaaaand my Twitter account is back under my control again!

I'm lowkey worried the BTS army is going to find me, but it's worth it to platform a truly *wicked* creator like Nia 💌. #IWDTwitterTakeover

It's time for me to head back to my own Twitter account (Nia 💌). If you've enjoyed my tweets here today or found my newsletter interesting, I'd love it if you subscribed or shared the content!

Support is the easiest way to encourage me! 💜

Continuing in a similar vein, hostile architecture, created to deter homeless people and/or vandals can have a detrimental impact on all of society.

Pregnant? Old? Tired? There's nowhere to sit anymore. buff.ly/3yhg5bj Nia 💌

This year's #IWD2023 theme is #EmbracingEquity

(Useful stuff could've been written instead of just adding pictures of people hugging themselves tbh 💀) so let's talk more about how our society is rigged against the poor & marginalized: buff.ly/3SZoU2I Nia 💌

If you've heard of 방탄소년단, chances are you've heard of the #BTSARMY . A predominantly female fanbase (a huge chunk of it teen girls) helped make them into global superstars.

So why do we continue shaming (clearly powerful) teen girls for their passions? buff.ly/3SYOJQv

.Nia 💌: A little fun fact about me is that I LOVE 방탄소년단. 🎵

At uni, when I lucked out and got tickets to go to their concert — I saw that the same tickets were being resold for £16,000.

I went to the concert.

Which artist is worth something similar to you? 💸

Last year, I created a list of 14 newsletters (+bonus content) that were essential reading for freelance writers. In April, I'm sharing a reworked list — and it's free*!

To get it, either share or subscribe.

Yesterday, Mel Barfield | Copywriting (she/her) tweeted the phrase 'Community over competition' (og thought by Sophie Cross) & I wanted to take a moment to highlight its importance (especially as a woman, doubly so if you're a freelancer).

Support, uplift, and empower. #IWD2023 Nia 💌

.Nia 💌: The last time I did a #TwitterTakeover on Sophie Cross's profile, I had just reached 500 newsletter readers.

This time, I'm delighted to share that we crossed 1,000 readers last week — double the folks, double the fun! 🎉 #IWD2023

.Nia 💌: Elevator pitch time!
I write Not Controversial, a weekly newsletter where I talk about things we all think about but don't feel comfortable talking about. Adult loneliness, earning rest, our never-ending thirst for productivity, etc.
