This is so helpful (to see what worked, and even more to see what didn't). I'm looking forward to what you offer this year.

And I feel better about changing my own newsletter focus to align with what I can do well that still serves my readers best (and informing my subscribers of the change).

Thank you for taking the time to share this! As a newbie on substack (procrastinating writing my dissertation by writing things I don’t have to cite 3 papers for every sentence I wrote), I really appreciate this. I also loved “And I’m an Aries. I don’t like to do things I don’t like to do!”

Love this Jeannine. As a newbie on Substack with so much to share, it's so important to me that I am authentic and uphold my values. And that I am connected to people who genuinely care about what they are doing and why. Thank you..✨🙏

Wow. Thanks so much for sharing this. I've been feeling a little stuck in a rut due to things outside of my writing life, and you've given me a bit of a kick in the butt to pay attention to what I'm (not) doing. All the best!

Love to have found someone here who teaches writing. I’m just starting my substack writing short romantic drama stories but I’m afraid to make grammar mistakes so great people stop reading. Which of your boothcamps would be best for me to take?

I remember Gary Vee saying what you said there, that just because you put something on social media it doesn't mean anyone needs to read it. - That can be tough as you've said to accept, but then you realise that if there's going to be one person happy that you showed up it should be you doing what makes you happy. Because at least then, someone enjoyed your work.
