Intro

When I started writing the Engineering Leadership newsletter back in October 2022, I had zero clue how to write a good article, as I had never done any online writing outside of my work before.

I more or less just opened my Notion page and wrote what came to my mind.

After many learnings, I found a process that works for me to have been able to send out 90+ consistent weekly newsletter articles.

And in this article, I am sharing my process with you!

Here is the index of the sections of this article:

  • So many ideas, how to store all of them?

  • Now that we have all the ideas stored, how to select what to write about?

  • Using LinkedIn / X posts is also a great way to select what to write about

  • I also prioritize articles that would be helpful to me when I was growing as an engineer or as a manager

  • I have a few simple high-level rules for writing articles

  • How I structure my articles

πŸ”’Β  How I review an article after the first draft

πŸ”’Β  How I create visuals

πŸ”’Β  The article is published, what to do after?
