Dear Reader,

Today’s Behind The Scenes of Business column is for paid subscribers of Monday Monday. I wanted to talk through my latest online class launch and why in the end I decided to cancel the class.

I’ll share strategy, numbers, new entry points for writing, and why its failure was a gift of time.

To be clear I love teaching online. I love the quilt of squares, faces shining through, names of people I am unfamiliar with tuning in off camera, the mystery of it all. None of what follows changes that, if anything it highlights how much I miss it.

This is a column about business, and sometimes the business part doesn’t work out even when the teaching could have.
