It has really been helpful, thank you!

That is very generous of you! The fact that you take the time to gather information and seek to help others with your efforts is very kind and brave, not everyone dares. I too am looking forward for those articles! I am sure they will be very helpful to all of us.

Lol suspenseful is a good word to describe my writing community!

Good heavens, I think we're subconsciously competing to build suspense, because I was also thinking about posting a very short story tomorrow. 😂 And, the article on Mr. Darcy will come out next Saturday!

This was a fantastic article, Aaron! That statistic stating that more than half of the world's population uses social media is so mind boggling to me. I can understand the allure but have found that it exacerbates some unhealthy habits that I would prefer to not have to deal with. That makes it difficult to get your name out there, though. Balancing everything is certainly an interesting concept.

Bekah, thank you for your kind words. Yes, there can be very unhealthy habits on the part of the consumer & the companies themselves. Owning our own sites provides protection from algorithms & bad habits etc...Moderation is important. Substack, is quite refreshing I will say😊
