I love Genevieve's words and gentle energy. Her publication here on Substack promises so much for (m)others and those moving through their journey of matrescence. Her other 'baby' is Motherlore Magazine, which I implore you to seek out.
I am a longtime fan of Lillias's visual work and so delighted she has landed here to share words, too (she also happens to play flute for the band I'm in...)
Delighted to have discovered Lily's Substack and join her growing community of readers and writers who love memoir.
I'm a longtime fan of Clover's memoirs and love the way she has been using Instagram to connect with readers. This space, however, gives her readers such privileged access to more of her longform content. Every essay is, as you'd expect, a total treat.
Nancy's exploration into the female experience straddles photography and longform prose, which taken together offer something very moving indeed.
Catherine's longform is as delicious to read as her poetry. I read her musings as a way to tune out the everyday noise and love being fully immersed in her storytelling. Beautiful vignettes from life.
Priceless insights into creating community and intentional growth on Substack. Claire is a wonderful, generous human who lives by the motto, 'A rising tide raises all ships.' Love being a part of the Sparkle gang!
One of my absolute favourite publications, on or off Substack. By turns hilarious and heartbreaking, Emily's memoir in real time needs to be read from the beginning. I am a full-on fangirl.
