🚨Finally launched my Substack! 🚨Done is better than perfect. 💁🏼‍♀️ As a writer who hasn’t published a book or been paid for articles, Substack provides a way I can earn income for my art via a monthly (or yearly) subscription. 

For more than a decade, I wrote and put pieces out into the world via the socials and my website. FREE for anyone who wanted to click, (thanks for all the clicks)! I chronicled parenting a child through some really tough times, turning 40, finding my way back to myself, and more. I was told my writing mattered, helped people, that it often wrapped them in a warm blanket or made them feel less alone. Maybe even caused a chuckle or two. Sometimes I’m funny.🤷🏼‍♀️😆

It is in my nature to authentically share my life and my emotions through my writing and to do so in spaces like this. Creatively healing through the words, hoping they might be a light for the one who needs them in that moment. Because of this, I will not move all my writing behind a paywall, but I have started to share some via Substack - a digital subscription service where you can subscribe to my art, my words, my writing for a monthly (or yearly) fee. 

My hope is that those who can afford to invest in me as a writer, will consider purchasing a subscription at $8/month.
 
Substack also has free subscriptions, if you’re more of a try before you buy kind of person. I’ll be sharing public/non-paid posts over there sometimes too.

Who do I think I am trying to earn money for my art? I think I’m an accomplished woman, writer, artist who deserves to be compensated for the hard creative work I put into the world. I am women, hear me write. 😏

Thank you for considering!
