Awesome! I think it shows that if you're honest and speak your mind, your readers will find you. I started a Substack in Nov 2022, hoping to get 100 free subscribers as I wrote tips and techniques for fiction writers, combining my fiction writing and my editing experience to compile little bits of advice based on issues I'd seen (or done) many times over. It took two years to hit 100, then another year to hit 200, then 500, and now 1,000. Way more than I ever expected. Way short of your 6K! But far beyond my expectations. Substack can be pretty amazing that way, and you've obviously hit some good nerves. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
A lot of success is just doing good work again and again until luck strikes and it's noticed. One moment you think nothing will happen and then voila, suddenly your whole life just changed.
Well done to you! Full confession: I haven't always agreed with your pieces and takes, but I admire how you've gone about things, you have the right attitude and haters are gonna hate, as they say (oh my, can't believe I said that, I'm a cranky old Gen Xer for goodness' sakes!).
Keep at it, I'll continue popping in and seeing what you have to say, trying to respectfully quibble here and there 😉
