Claire, you're always so generous about sharing and collaboration. I appreciate so much that you've mentioned me again, and I see lots of names that offer great things to help the community! I chatted with Jen Baxter the other day about also putting together a little "services networking" page. Of course you'll be on it! 😊

Hi Kristi! This is a great idea 👍 Would you be willing to pop some info about my proofreading/editing services on there? 😁

Of course! 100%! I think you're the only one I know personally who does what you do so, yes!!

I'll probably create the page next week and I'll let you know when it's up. 😊

I started my Substack to share the personal growth and lessons I've learned through the process of learning languages - primarily the Irish language. Long before the roman alphabet was introduced to Ireland, they used to have their own writing system. For every post I choose a single word in Irish that I feel encapsulates that article and I write it in this writing system (ogham) at the bottom of my post as a little divider between the content and the technical business (subscribe, comment, upcoming posts, etc.) I don't know if anyone has caught on that they're different every time or translated what they mean, but I like having them as a little easter egg. And for me, knowing that it holds additional meaning is special, even if no one else puts in the effort to decode it.

This is really really beautiful Briana. It’s like a tiny beacon. A lovely newsletter legacy!

Claire, this may be (yet another) daft question but how do I insert a page break?! I've created one but not used it, yet!✨

You’re welcome. It really struck a chord and then I read an adjacent piece about front doors. ✨

Feng Sui I should have said with front doors - made me want to paint mine.
