Here are my top tips to write more in 2025:

1. Use ChatGPT to churn out a whole load of crap, preferably about AI/crypto/whatever vapid self-help '-ness' is trending that particular week.

2. Post it to Medium (it's against the rules, but they don't bother enforcing them, so that's OK).

3. Promote it by posting empty comments on other writers' articles - a single word (even an emoji) will do, or just copy and paste a few random words from the original piece.

4. You could also ask people to 'plise reed my riting'. Again, this kind of fake engagement, or 'growth hacking' is against the platform's T&Cs, but they don't bother enforcing these either, or otherwise their capacity to do so has been completely overwhelmed by their injudicious mass expansion of the MPP in 2024, so that's OK as well.

5. By doing this, you will help create a Better Internet! Well done you!

6. /end sarc

7. Happy new year.
