Your A-Z of Sparkle on Substack Membership ✨
Hi, I’m Claire - I’m an Engagement Consultant and Mentor and I’ve been teaching creatives who also write about Substack since February 2023.
Here at
, we are a community of creatives, writers, journalists and wellbeing practitioners that want to grow JOYFULLY and SUSTAINABLY on Substack. We lean into experiments, I share what works for me and my clients, we explore what’s possible and how Substack fits with our ecosystem. It’s a tonne of fun and there is so much potential for you too.🌟 The FREE Sparkle on Substack Podcast is here and not catalogued below.

Wordmarks (Publication Title)
You can use this canva template but honestly wordmarks are just hard to get right! Please change the colour and the font to your brand colours and pull the design to the edges, graphics don’t work so well. You can employ someone to help.
