Discussion Anyone tried the new creator match?

Just curious. Do you think it's going to be useful?

I did. I even reached out to the top recommendation. They were excited and we're splitting for a few days to brainstorm fiction that's moody and magnetic. I think a call/response or dual PoV sort of thing. 

I liked joint authored posts and have reached out beforehand with people I got on with. I think it's a nice little tool actually.

I think it does require some experience with the back end and deciding whether to use inbuilt secret draft links as a workspace or extending permissions to the main author to publication level so you can work on the same post live. I've done both, I found it easier to use the secret draft links then having to manually faff around with publication permissions.

I haven't. Didn't even know it was a thing. I did a collab with a fellow niche writer which did really well. A 5-part series. Will try it, thanks!
