I don’t care if you have 0 subscribers or 10,000. I want to read your work. Drop your Substack below.
I will read as many as I can and subscribe to those that resonate. I will support the voices that need to be heard. And if a writer speaks to your soul, lift them up. Share their work. Pass it on.
Your voice matters. Your words have power. Let’s grow and rise together.
I just found out that people accuse writers who use em-dashes of using ChatGPT — and I’m shocked!!
I love using em-dashes (—) as much as I love using semi-colons (;), and colons (:), and hyphens (-), and parenthesis (()), and exclamation marks (!), etc
Em-dashes (—) are perfectly dramatic and I love them. No em-dash user slander shall prosper
You made it, you own it
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
You shouldn’t finish every book you start.
Abandoning a book is not an admission of failure—it’s a sign of wisdom. You’ve decided to let go of sunk costs.
The purpose of reading is to be entertained and informed. If a book doesn't bring joy or insight, it’s time to move on.
Great discussions

Hi. I'm a writer, and I just found Substack a few days ago. If you are also a writer who's just starting here, we need each other like bread needs butter.
So if you can see this post, pls hit the like button, and I'll follow you and subscribe, while you do the same.
Let's build a meaningful relationship and grow together.
Chris Dalla Riva's s story is so crazy that it's irresistible. I loved his quest from start to finish. He discovered as much about his own family as he did Sinatra. The family photographs and yearbook entries are particularly wonderful. As his beautiful grandmother would say, "Ge-beep!"
