Writerlicious, the Flipboard magazine I've curated for years and years, was chosen for the April 10th Today's Picks!
I *think* I started Writerlicious in 2010 or 2011 -- it coincides with when I started graduate school, because my graduate school gave everybody iPads and Flipboard was one of the first apps I downloaded.
It was originally a magazine for my own personal use, but I accidentally left it public, so when I started getting large amounts of subscribers I just thought, what the heck, I'll curate it for everyone. So I subscribe to numerous email newsletters, digests, and websites in order to find articles worth flipping into my magazine for others to read.
I didn't realize Writerlicious would grow to the size it has today.
As of writing this:
- I've added 19,593 stories to the magazine.
- I have 64,399 viewers.
- I have 13,699 followers.
- People have flipped articles (added to their own curations) from my magazine over 818,000 times.
- Writerlicious was also featured as part of the Gift of Flipboard campaign
- Writerlicious was also included in Janice Wald's article "How to Get Swarms of Free Blog Traffic With Flipboard"
