I've been spending time on Substack a lot lately, but as promised, I'll still show up in your inbox once or twice a month 💌
|
Living abroad means I get to follow almost everything happening back home from thousands of miles away, usually through doomscrolling on Instagram 😆
|
From the crazy haze issue (which I really hope gets better soon, and everyone can breathe clean air again)...
|
to Bella Astillah and Syed Saddiq getting married 💕 YAY!
|
...what else have I been missing? Tell me!
|
|
As for me, a Malaysian living in Riyadh, things have been quite different here too.
|
You can read all about Riyadh in the news.
|
(I don't think I'm allowed to be the news here 👀)
|
Nevertheless, I'm safe and doing well, so no worries!
|
|
And speaking of keeping up, here's what I've been writing on Substack lately, in case you've missed it.

If you're learning copywriting and wondering how to put together a portfolio that helps you land the kind of projects you actually want, start here.
|
A little glimpse into my life here in Riyadh, plus what I've been reading lately. I've started writing more about my life abroad on Substack, almost like a journal.
|
|
This one's for my fellow copywriters. I walk you through a real client situation, including how I handled the pushback and communicated my reasoning. It's also an example of the more in-depth content I share with my paid subscribers.

3 categories I'm writing on Substack
I've been enjoying having more space to write on Substack, especially about things that need a little more context than what I can squeeze into a social media post.
|
To make it easier for you to find what you're interested in, I've organised my publication into 3 categories:
|
|
|
|
What will you you get as a paid subscriber?
Apart from my free articles, I've also been building a resource library for my paid subscribers.
|
Here's what you get when you go paid ⤵️
|
|
1. In-depth articles & real-life client case studies
|
|
Get a behind-the-scenes look at my freelance copywriting work, from handling client pushback to explaining my copy decisions and navigating tricky situations.
|
|
2. Monthly downloads for copywriters
|
Every month, I also release a practical resource, like templates, worksheets, and guides, to help you with your copywriting work.
|
|
If you subscribe annually, you get to unlock the entire resource vault 👇 instantly, instead of waiting for each month's download ✨
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Submit one piece of copy each month for my review and get feedback on how to improve it. This is a perk I brought back from my previous membership program ✍️
|
If you're a freelance copywriter looking to sharpen your skills, learn from real client projects, and access practical resources, my paid subscription on Substack might be for you!
|
And if you're not ready to go paid, that's completely fine too! I'll still be sharing free articles and personal updates as usual 🫶
|
Come hang out with me on Substack if you haven't already 😉
|
Until my next inbox appearance, take care of yourself, and I'll see you around!

What I'm up to lately in Riyadh ✨

I'm not a runner and excuse my slow turtle pace, but I try to train for the upcoming Riyadh Marathon 2027 💪

Been hibernating in my workspace a lot lately.
