This is it — this is how you build a publication on Medium from scratch. This post will share some of my struggles and some of my wins in an attempt to encourage you to follow as well as to insight you to write for us.

First, take a look at what this publication is and why it exists:

It is run by Naomi Folb and myself, Lennie Varvarides — we wanted to create a space where Dyslexic and all Neurodivergent creatives could have a permanent home and find not only support but creative stimulation around all things Neurodivergent, from creativity to politics.

The publication is very new — we set it up in June 2021 and are happy to shout out to all of our followers below: Shana Tufail, Trisha Dunbar, Kathy Forsyth, Chloe Young, Dominica Mangognia,Fernanda Franco, Pennie Varvarides, W. Green, J.D. Harms, Lucy Barker, Parker Cassel, Touristjs, Isobel Pilkington, Jordan Y. J, Jenny
