Starting a publication on Medium can be a fun learning experience and a good way to promote your work and the work of other writers. But, how do you get started? Or, have you created your publication, and now you’re wondering how to set it all up, so it looks like a publication?

I’ve had many writing peers ask me about how to create a publication on Medium. I’ve found the best way to explain is by sharing a screen and showing them the process because it isn’t intuitive or easy, at least for me.

Enter this tutorial. I’m hoping these videos using the Loom app will make it much easier for you to start a publication from scratch or jazz up the publication you’ve already created.

The videos are organized in order by:

  1. A Short Introduction about myself, Aimée Gramblin-Age of Empathy publication Owner, and why you might want to start a publication.
  2. How to Create a Medium Publication
  3. How to Access and Navigate Your Publication Once It Has Been Created
  4. How to Create Newsletters for Your Publication
  5. How to Make an Editor’s Picks Section Appear at the top of Your Publication
  6. How to Create the Tabs on Your Publication’s Homepage
