I love all of this! Shutting down, energy audit, expectations the death of joy, doing things when you want to do them. I say YES to all of it ❤️

LOL, I’m glad it resonated with you. ❤️

Please do! I am sick to death of substack posts that have that empty flavour of being created to a schedule, rather than needing to exist. they exist in their thousands and thousands. The fact that you're writing and enjoying it means whatever you are doing is working - and we will love to hear from you when it feels right - because those kind of substack posts are rare and special.

I love the idea of substack but it feels like it's going to way of everything else - focussing on producing and numbers without stopping to wonder whether more silence is what we all really need. ❤️

"I think I need to start taking my own advice. That means that Dear Writer, from here on, will show up in your Substack inbox whenever I’ve got something to say that I think might be fun to write about for me, or valuable for you."
