I find your substack so relieving and so true! Any time I think there is some way I ‘should’ write I end up laughing at myself. This is just not the way writing- or pretty much anything-happens. I avoid writing advice and my posts seem to come out of nowhere when they come. I appreciate your clear understanding of this!🙏🏼
I can only say this is a nice life raft in the sea of ‘how to be a great writer’. I know when the words start spilling (great name!) and that is what I love about writing

Hi Heidi, thank you so much for taking the time to share your appreciation here.
There aren’t many readers yet, but I still feel the pull to keep sharing for those who need to hear it. :)
That feeling of things coming out of nowhere, and laughing at the idea of how we’re “supposed” to write, definitely feels familiar.

Yes! 😃
