I continue to regularly chronicle my journey on the creative writing platform Simily. Just two weeks ago, I noted the site was seeing some rapid growth and had surpassed 6000 members.

Today when I logged in to check things out and get ready to write this update, I noted the site now has over 8800 members. That’s big growth. Adding nearly 3000 members in two weeks is a big deal.

It means more writers on the site and more people interested in reading the writing on the site.

This is encouraging as it shows Simily is working to attract members and what they are doing is working.

Of course, unless they up their game in terms of site functionality and social media promotion, they may have difficulty retaining these new members.

That leads to what I wrote about last week — the site’s “free writing” day where writers can get together and receive prompts and/or workshop pieces together.
