My first year on Substack

Thanks and Giveaways

March is a special month for me because it’s my birthday month.

This year March also marks:

• One year since I started writing on Substack

• Two years since my book Rest + Calm was published (*more on my Book Birthday below)

Thank you so much for being here! It really means a lot to me.

And if you’re a paid subscriber, an extra special thank you as your support makes it possible for me to continue sharing these offerings.

To celebrate my first year on Substack:

• If you’re already a paid subscriber or founding member: I will be adding an extra complimentary month to your existing subscription.

• If you’re currently a free subscriber: I’ll be picking three 5-star readers at random to receive a complimentary paid subscription for a whole month. (If you’ve been picked you’ll receive an email from me letting you know.)

Are you a free subscriber and would like to upgrade? If so, you can upgrade here.

If you’ve found value in any of my offerings but you’re not able to afford a subscription at the moment and would like to support my work you can buy me a Ko-fi here and/or refer Slow Living in the Big City to a friend.

And during March I’ll temporarily lift the paywalls on certain posts. I’ll be sharing these on Substack Notes, so do follow me there if you’re aren’t already to make sure you don’t miss them.

In the meantime, here are links to a few of my most viewed and favourite free posts from the past 12 months:
