# Write and edit a message

### Create a message

You're signed up, logged in and connected to your contacts in a sphere?  
It's time to send your first message! 

*   Go to the sphere where you'd like to publish your message.
    
*   Enter your message in the "Write a new message" field (top center).
    
*   Select who you would like to share your message with (all sphere members or only mentioned users).
    
*   Click on the button "Share in 'Name of sphere' ".  
    

You can also share a message quickly by using the shortcut "ctrl + enter" on Windows, or "⌘ + enter" on Mac.

If you select " **With members** " when sharing your message, it will be visible to all sphere members. If you select " **In private** ", it will only be visible to the [members that you have mentioned](https://help.whaller.com/en/articles/3378921-share-messages-with-all-members-or-in-private).

The full sphere directory can be found in the right hand column, in the " **Members** " section.
