This is so good, and I'm so glad you took a "risk" and started sharing your musings on Substack. It's been exciting to see you blossom over these last 2+ years in your writing. For the record, I think you're pretty good. :-) Love you.

Happy Anniversary to you and Dump Cake, Wendy!

"First Sip" is delightful!

Your confession, "when the world’s chaos looms large, I struggle greatly to share my content," resonates deeply. As much as I can relate (I currently find myself in one of the deepest writing ruts ever), I want to thank you for continuing to post. Your poetry is far from silly, and your prose always leaves me with little gems to tuck away for later (I can't make a cup of Earl Grery without thinking of you and your dear friend). Keep at it. The world needs your words.
