Iām so glad youāre hereā¦
Sparkle on Substack explores what it means to be writing and creating right here on Substack in real time. Iāve been here since April ā22 and have had such an incredible journey as a creative who also likes to write.
My āStay Creative on Substackā posts were so popular I made them a whole Substack publication home to live in and created a membership of supportive colleagues for you to work and grow with!
Come on inā¦
āClaire has been so incredibly supportive since I joined Substack a year ago and what Claire doesnāt know about Substack isnāt worth knowing, she oozes information and is so generous with all the free resources that she shares.ā
