After so many years of subscribing to the newsletter being able to say hi is so cool! I love the writing advice, and todays hit hard because I've recently learned I've got ADHD, and if writing was hard to begin with this adds a whole new layer of spice to the endeavour! A lot of advice just isn’t helpful to me, but I’m learning how to manage and bend craft techniques to suit my needs and who knows?! I might have a finished draft one day 😂

Hiii! I love Substack, another author I follow uses it! And I love what you said about writing advice. It reminds me of how negative and chronically online some takes can be, like all the “the Star Wars sequels are objectively bad writing” type comments, and that kind of stuff always annoys me and messes with me head. Art is subjective and beautiful and it wouldn’t be so special of everyone didn’t create differently!

Hello!! I love your Witchlands series and was wondering when the next installment is set to be released? **Trying to wait patiently***

Really liking the new substack format - genius move. Less clutter/graphics on the screen = better for a brain overstimulated by the internet.

Not to put more work on your plate, but if you are ever at a loss for what to write, I would L.O.V.E. to read your analysis of Ted Lasso S2 and the character issues. I had the same issue with Walking Dead which (along with the insanely high level of gratuitous violence) led me to stop watching the show. How many times can they make Carol into a completely new character?!

I'm not entirely sure which characters you are referring to in Ted Lasso, but would really like to read more, especially before S3.

This new format is much easier on my old eyes. I used to have to zoom in to read your newsletter. Glad for the change...and free? Can't beat that!

I wish you had a podcast, I always find myself driving or with idle listening time not being able to sit and read and think, I wish I could listen to susan talk all that she writes about here...

so maybe that could get you out of your funk if you just did a little side bar chit chat...
