2 years ago I had blue hair!! and I'm holding my first story that ever appeared in print. As an LA Times intern, I fell in love with journalism. this work is so deeply personal, it is the only way I know how to give back to the LA that has raised me. tomorrow we strike! ✊🏼

Viral score

Based on absolute engagement — the platform doesn’t expose follower counts here, so large accounts score higher.

From likes, comments.

Why it worked

Drops you into the middle of a story, so the next line feels necessary.
Follows a clear Hook → Context → Landing shape, so the reader always knows where they are.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.

The mechanics

Hook: Opens mid-story
Structure: Hook → Context → Landing
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: personal, energetic
Written for: Founders and early-stage teams
