Author's Note

By Beth Morris

Pursuing publishing in my 40s, surviving the novel query trenches, and battling procrastination daily. Plus things I read, watch, cook, and love.

I feel I can learn 'stacks' (geddit?!) from Beth. She is streets ahead of me on her authors adventure. Definitely one to watch!

Before and After the Book Deal

By Courtney Maum

Real talk about the writing + publishing industry from an author who doesn’t want you to feel confused, bewildered, or alone. Plus: craft tips, reading recommendations, writing support + solidarity (unless you are a jerk to people in the comments).

On Substack

By Substack Team

Resources, stories, and news for the writers, podcasters, musicians, video creators, and culture makers publishing on Substack.

I feel Substack Writers has the ability to become something huge and would be a great asset to substack authors. Think of the networking a creative sparks that could happen!
