Tweeting Your Way To A Successful Writing Career with Sophia Benoit

The Foster Podcast

Sophia Benoit has tweeted her way to a successful writing career.

She’s amassed nearly 120,000 devoted Twitter followers who tune in daily for her musings on pop culture, politics, and everything in between.

Her comical, offbeat writing style has earned her bylines in The Guardian, Allure, Refinery29, Reductress, and The Cut. Since 2017, she’s written regularly for GQ, where she brings her hilarious and oft very personal takes to the sex and relationships vertical.

She also writes an advice newsletter called Here's The Thing and has a book of humorous essays coming out this summer.

On the call, Sophia shared advice on how to build a strong social presence and what implications it can have for your longer-form writing and general presence as a writer. She also shared tips on how to hone your voice and not fall victim to the inauthentic, watered-down content that plagues much of the internet. On the second half of the call, we invited attendees to unmute and participate in a Q&A.
