OUT OF OFFICE EMAIL

I Am Going on Vacation and You’re Not

Read till the end there are actionable takeaways

Friends, Followers, and External Viewers,

Hope this message finds you well.

It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that I’m going on vacation for five days. I will be gone from 6th-10th July and missing from all the action.

I will log in on the 11th and catch up on all unanswered correspondence.

If you don’t see me publish for the next few days, or more importantly, hang out in your comments section, then please don’t fear the worst.

I am never going to leave Medium. Neither am I on a long hiatus.

The lunatic hipster millennial inside me decided, three months ago, to turn this vacation into a digital detox. So, I am not going to carry my laptop (cue gasp) and set my phone on airplane mode for 90% of the day, or all of it.

So, if you leave a comment, tag, or message, I may not be able to respond.

I deeply regret the inconvenience caused to you and I hope to come up with better content when I return. Maybe the distance will give me some inspiration. Or motivation to finish half-baked items on my to-do list.

See you soon and don’t have too much fun without me.

Yours sincerely,
Debdutta

Actionable Takeaways:

I realize that this will free up some time for you, as you won’t be responding to my incessant world-class comments or reading my stories.

Here are some better ideas for you to try out instead:

1. Get Coach Smillew to 100 followers. The other guy with a stubble has 40K and we as people of Mediumverse cannot have that.
2. Join Ann James in July’s Deluded Custodians challenge. (Ask first)
3. Let Jonah Angeles take you to a galactic Starbucks.
4. Read Claire Franky’s stories and get a free class in humor writing.
5. If you are a fiction writer, May More 💜 Tales has a fun prompt for you.
6. If you are a fan of dark humor…
