Thank you so much for including The Crow's Nest here--and an even bigger thank you for listing all these other publications, several of which I don't know and now must check out.

Thanks, you are such a glorious asset to this space.

It’s a wet weather programme here in the Ardèche. Newslettering day, my favourite. I get to read and curate even more of the work by such fab creators such as you! Happy Wednesday.

We need more community (and more storytelling), my friend. You create both so we need you and the folk you showcase in the spotlight.

Ah, the ‘to be read’ pile just gets deeper and broader! You are very welcome, my friend … just gently rippling out the stuff that brings us joy knowing it will hit the mark for others.
