Sarah's storytelling comes from such a unique perspective that immerses me within them instantly, gives me a fresh perspective, and makes me forget where I am for a few minutes. I love that! I think about her newsletters long after I am done reading them. I also love hearing her read them, the music and her voice all add to the experience.
Lou is one of the brightest lights I know. Her love of the sky that has become her motto "keep looking up" is only outdone by the way she lights up the room, the page, the group -- wherever you may encounter her. May her words bring you as much joy, courage and delight as they do for me.
William weaves the themes of thriller, romance, heartache and longing. First you read his words then you get the audio version -- two different takeaways as the story unfolds. The audio is immaculately produced adding depth to the already fascinating words. I feel my heart break and my blood boil in every edition: that of having been both the heartbroken and the heartbreaker. William writes in a way that takes me back to times I have been both, while I eagerly await what happens next.
To say so much in so little words is a true skill, and Amie does this so poetically - stirring up beautiful and hard and wonderful emotions each week. I am so grateful when this arrives in my inbox!
Gentle, sincere, practical ideas to take your writing to the next level, or unblock, or branch out, come in every edition. I have been able to improve my writing significantly and without feelings of 'not enough', as a subscriber. Susannah's examples and prompts have unlocked so much more in my writing and reading this substack has made me care about my writing a great deal more. Thank you, Susannah!
This is the first substack I subscribed to and I have never looked back. Lauren shares herself with the reader so vulnerably and openly, highlighting the ups and downs of her journey in a way I have never seen anyone else do, and in a way I so appreciate. Every volume Lauren's words hit me right when I need them.
