What a marvelous tangle of doing and being! I discovered your writing via Carly Wright & have been creeping my way through the archive of your work here. Your Substack is a treasure.

Wow, what creativity! I second Emilia Jane's comments and request to join the book club. I wanted to acknowledge that in the midst of all that wonderful and giving creativity there is still room for depression, we humans are such convoluted creatures.

I can't wait to hear your singing and look forward to the book. I loved the previous installments where you read the essays to us. I live overseas now in Australia now and it's heart-warming to hear your voice and accent (my father was a Yorkshire man).

More importantly, the custard here is different (read sub par). You can get double thickness and chocolate custard, but it's not the same. They don't sell the Bird's custard powder either which is my favourite.
