First, head to mirror.xyz and connect your wallet with the button in the top-right corner.

Step 2

If this is your first time using Mirror, go to the Settings tab in the left toolbar to set your profile picture, bio, color theme, and display name.

Step 3

Once you're happy with your profile settings, go back to the Entries tab and click Create Your First Entry.

Step 4

Now on the Write page, you’ll have access to Mirror’s text editor. This includes all of the writing platform essentials - headings, bulleted lists, images, and blockquotes. Go ahead and write your article! If you’re stumped and looking for inspiration, hop into the RabbitHole community Discord for ideas to get your started!

You will also have access to a number of web3 tools for monetizing your work and incorporating other NFTs. These include Crowdfund, Edition, Auction, Split, and NFT Preview. We won’t be using these for our first entry, but you can learn more about them here!

Step 5

After you have written your article, click the gear in the top-right corner to bring up your article settings. Upload a header image (3000x1500 px) and enter a meta title and entry excerpt. Your header image will also represent your Writing NFT when it is minted.

Once you're done, check your meta preview at the bottom of the article settings. This will show you how your article will appear on Mirror, search engines, and social media platforms. This is also a good time to save your article as a draft if you haven’t done so already. Just click Save Draft at the top.

Step 6

Now that you have a written article, a header image, and your meta settings all filled out, it’s time to give everything a good double-check. As with any NFT you mint, this article will forever be associated with your wallet! Even if you sell it, your wallet address will be shown as the original creator. So be sure to mint an original, quality article that you are happy to be associated with.

Step 7

If everything looks good to go, it’s time to publish! Click Publish and toggle on the NFT checkbox.
