Thanks to all contributing to this thread. I thought there was a bit of "cognitive dissonance' going on around people whose work I like and their use of substack. This link to alternatives was really helpful to me as I am looking for a place to publish the scripts for my podcast.

Dropping a short ep before Christmas. ~9 mins. Unscripted. Raw audio. No music. 18 years ago I donated 12 hours of my life to help change the life of 2 strangers.

Please give it a listen.

Given we just wrapped up Thanksgiving in the US and are entering the fray of even more emotionally charged holidays, I provide a structure I've used for what to do when we've noticed someone has pulled away from us and we aren't sure what happened: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

I spent a year researching my life to find the root of the fracturing of my family of origin. There are surprising echoes of the current political landscape and how MAGA and GOP ideology tear families apart. 6 weeks recording and producing 6 eps. This is part 1. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Well this was a nice start to my day!

I spend more time researching, writing, and producing & not enough time promoting or marketing.

I've just finished the draft for a 6 part story arc of my relationship with my sister from childhood to middle age when our relationship irrevocably fell apart. My longest most complex story arc yet.

Today is National Brothers Day or weekend. If like me, you didn't have a great brother - or you just get tired of feeling forced to celebrate things like this...have a listen. It's explicit for violence and sexual abuse. It's available just about everywhere. #1in6

2 years ago, I said goodbye to my queen, Shelby. My mourning of her is what launched my podcast. The first 4 episodes are about our shared journey, and finding my way forward...to the next dog that needed rescue. Feel free to give it a listen "If you don't want my opinion" is available everywhere.

I haven't yet invested much in my marketing/social media profile, but to my 21 followers, mostly from content starter packs, if I'm doing a podcast that is short story based, do I include past exposition each time assuming someone may be listening to this short story, but not the prior ones?

I genuinely wonder what would happen if the Murdochs said, "we break the glass bubble and report the truth until Trump reverses himself on the economy."

WSJ is telling things straight, even the ed page. Imagine if Fox did so.

After my coming out story, I needed to do something satirical. As we approach the holidays yet again - this may give you a laugh or two. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a...

After I finished my story about my life and times with Shelby and my other fur family members, National Coming Out Day was approaching. I've been involved in DEI since before it had an acronym and I realized I'd never fully told my coming out story. Here it is. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/n...

I began this podcast when my dog, Shelby, died and I needed to process my grief. I took her in as a medical foster, she was so sick. This is the first episode I recorded - I had to learn everything about the process and they get better as I go along. Please listen. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s...

Welcome! I spent my first 20 years surviving a great deal of abuse, the next 30 years doing the work to unpack and process it, and now I'm sharing my stories of life, coping and resilience (in scripted short story style) to help others. Like life, it's full of laughs and tears. I hope you'll listen.
