Noticing

This. My new substack title. I love my little blog, but you know as well as I know, I don’t visit you very often here. It feels, well, neglect-full at best. I will still visit, post something fresh for you here. Aim for my monthly engagement because I really love my website and love the positive responses here. Lovely.

But a Substack newsletter offers more. Connection. Community. A broader interactive space. A space to share my thoughts, my heart, my noticings. Wait. I do this here, with you, on my blog. Still less than once a month and not thematically or structured.

Noticing will hold a theme: the little things I notice that contribute to my creative life.

I guess what I need and, maybe you might enjoy too, is a weekly glee-full rant. Think, avant-garde poetry salon mixed with analog methods, like vinyl records, long-hand writing, to-do lists, and home-baked bread. Think, gathering around a campfire and sharing stories, experiences, noticings. Think, postcards, hand-written Thank You’s, and a proper cup of tea.

I plan to send those who subscribe a Noticing each week. Within each Noticing, I’ll share my thoughts, along with a creative call or prompt or tool. Something that you might find useful. Something to keep you inspired and your heart filled.

If you’d like to check out Noticing, subscribe, and take a gander at this week’s Creative Call, you can just press the button below.
