Thursday’s featured posts

Coffee Times Weekly Roundup — 5

Thursday’s picks from here and elsewhere on Medium

Image by Parag Bhagat from Pixabay

So much has been happening at Coffee Times this past week! Exciting stuff! For one thing, I had the joy of monitoring article submissions on Friday and Saturday and will be doing so on all Fridays and Saturdays from now on. It was fun. And I enjoyed the one-on-one interaction with some of the writers.

Then, we have a new column at Coffee Times. Did you know that? It is called Know Thyself and will be helmed by Yana Bostongirl. Please read her post here. I also urge you to respond to the prompt in her post — it is a very timely one for this month and the response has been fantastic!

Saving the best for last, our publication Coffee Times crossed the 1000-follower mark a couple of days ago! And we look forward to seeing continued rapid growth!

Now let’s enjoy this week’s featured picks, shall we?

Do visit, comment, clap generously!

At Coffee Times

Nancy Blackman takes us through her journey of how she learned to be grateful on her terms, which changed her attitude towards life, herself, and others. It is a beautiful read! This line in her post stays with me:

At the end, when you are looking death in the eyes, what will you be grateful for?

Want a steady supply of writing inspiration? Mike Lewis’s post will tell you how to find killer article ideas.

Preeti Ramachandran’s post is a visual treat of nature showing us who’s boss. Her photography is stunning and so is her narrative.

In his post, Gaurav Jain talks about his experiments with travel and packs in quite a bit of info while also sharing his dream and his favorite destination.

Here is a fun read from Mireille where she cracks the mystery of the murder pen.

Christina talks about her happy digital place in her post. I think we can all agree with her!

Tessa Koller shares how realizing her inner power led to self-love and better health.

pragati gautam has some great book recommendations for people who don’t like to read.

Across Medium

Jimmy Misner Jr. is one of my favorite writers. He writes insightful posts with incredible takeaways. I recommend visiting his page and browsing. Here’s a wonderful post about what negative emotions can teach us.

Pene Hodge poses a thought-provoking question in her post — can women ever be truly free?

In his post, James Beaufait asks — what’s your story? and explores the question, while realizing that life flows through him; it’s not him moving through life.

Trisha Dunbar shares ten ways to manage unhelpful thoughts when writing, to help you master your thinking to improve your writing.

Close on the heels of the news that Medium has acquired Projector, a Collaborative, Multimedia Design Platform, Ev Williams announced the acquisition of Knowable to bring audio to Medium. Looks like big things are in store!

Did you see Marrisa W.’s latest book prompts?

Check out the Travel series from Sharing Randomly

Our archive of interviews is growing, thanks to Drashti Shroff’s Interview series — take a look!

If you’ve been wondering about what kind of stories are going viral these days, read Winston’s post.

And that’s a wrap for this week! Thank you for reading!
