I read ‘I Who Have Never Known Men’ last week. Ohhh..what a book hangover! I can’t even explain it - so haunting, but beautiful. The magic of both solitude and community.

Invitation to Collaborate on a Groundbreaking Writers’ Platform

Dear Kate,

I hope this message finds you well. My name is Ekeswar Harijan, and I’m reaching out to invite you to be part of an exciting new venture that has the potential to empower millions of writers globally.

I’m currently building a digital media platform — an app designed to empower writers like you to publish independently, reach millions of readers worldwide, access powerful tools, and earn through your content. The platform will offer multiple monetization opportunities, including ads, tips, verified reads and shares, brand collaborations, and more — all aimed at helping writers turn their passion into sustainable income.

You can find the link to my pitch deck in the bio on both Substack and Instagram.

With a humble background and limited resources, I’m doing my best to bring this vision to life — but I can’t do it alone. That’s why I’m seeking your support.

Specifically, I’m looking for 50–100 quality leads from your Instagram followers or Substack subscribers — who could meaningfully contribute to this mission.

If you’re able to help, I’d be glad to offer you a long-term reward as a token of appreciation and recognition for your foundational role in this journey and everyone who contributes will also be rewarded.

If this opportunity resonates with you and you're in a position to support, I kindly ask you to respond within 2 days so we can have a clear and meaningful conversation about the idea. Otherwise, I will respectfully move forward and reach out to other writers.

Feel free to reach out via DM or the email provided in my bio.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Warm regards,

Ekeswar Harijan
