Thank you for the peek behind the bed covers of a real author in her pajamas obsessing over likes. This would totally be me if I didn’t a) have a full time job and b) if I wrote a book.

You never fail to make me laugh, Julie.

I was dying to listen to your interview by Winnie the Pooh. Damn that work thing. I’m gonna listen on my way to work this morning.

Re: the addiction

I come here most every day to read others’ work yes, but also to obsessively check likes and stats and subscribers, despite most days also thinking, “I need to give this all up. Stop writing. Get off substack and all social media. Get a flip phone! It’s all not real and I’m SO addicted.”

I’m pretty certain we ALL are addicted at this point. Some of us just have the gift and the grind of awareness.

How does a newsletter swap work?

Please listen to my Winnie the Pooh interview. I think it’s great, but haven’t gotten much feedback. I guess I don’t really give a lot of feedback to podcast episodes, myself, so I should stop being this way. Rosemary, I’ve never done one, but in a swap, we would each post something written by the other—expose ourselves to a new audience.

Cheering you and your book on, Julie!! And, I’m deeply addicted to the checking thing.
