Are you a writer? Do you have a Substack? (I get asked this often. Evidently publishers want writers to have Substack newsletters.)
There are problems with every platform. I still mourn this platform and miss its connected early days. Writers and publishers are still here, and so am I, but it's not the same. No platform is perfect, but we can still use them to connect and discover.
Thanks for reading this thread. Here's my 'stack Flash Craft | Marijean | Substack marijean.substack.com Subscribe for content about writing and submitting Flash, or you can subscribe to get the goods on where I've just been published.
