The crisp chilly autumn breeze that brushed my face this morning reminded me of the privilege-to see another day-..and now this beautiful piece of writing just added to the shine..its going to be another beautiful day.. God is awesome!
Hi Mandy, this is Ed from just south of the border in the Seattle area. I love the work you're kick starting and would be happy to help. A former colleague of mine, Jeff, and I have started a few posts the traditional "blog" way at http://helpconnecting.com/ but I like the substack model a lot.
I have just started learning how to write. The image that you shared beautifully captures what was running in my head..."There are so many people writing about so many things, what I write might be a speck"
I like your perspective of writing for the joy of writing...not giving too much importance to the subscriber count...But is it really possible? Does it not happen that you send out a post and eagerly wait to hear the response from people about it? I am curious to know.
Also, I would like to hear your thoughts on the challenges elderly people face in battling loneliness. In case you have already about it, please do share the link.
Hi Mandy, I just found this, read it, and loved it. And I needed it today. I've been really wrapped up in (read: anxiously, often at significant expense to my mental health) trying to Be a Writer for decades now, but especially lately, and even though I know other writers struggle with some of the same stuff, I often forget that. And so it was refreshing to read this reminder. Keep bringing your truth. And thank you.

Hi Ed! Thank you for sending me a note to your blog! I'm really glad to be in touch and I'd love to hear more about your project and how it's going.

I really like the way you describe things.
