My Substack Summer
What I read in Summer 2024
How cool is this list Substack curated for me? I only began focusing on Substack in May, but it looks like I’ve spent a lot of time this platform. Not sure if that’s good or bad. Everyone says that writers must read the work of other writers, and it looks like I’ve done a lot of it!
I’ve been deeply moved and inspired by what I’ve read here this summer, and by the welcoming community of writers I’ve found in the Note section. I’m happy to be here with all of you!
Tell me, what has been your favorite part of this little corner of the internet so far?

What Comes Next? by
Something odd will cross my mind, or a memory will catch me off guard, or my monkey mind will swing from the ceiling fan, or a tiny ant will crawl up the bookcase next to my chair. Then I get curious and curiosity is the first step in an unknown direction
