Loved getting to know Rebecca a little better!! Would also love to know a bit more about the book you want to write, Rebecca! 😀

I'll keep you posted, Jillian! In fact I'd been dabbling in my book idea for a little while before I found Substack, but after I landed here everything I've written has been between 1,500 and 2,500 words and has been published at 10.15 on Saturday mornings! 😆

Well, I guess I'm practising my writing here with my weekly posts - but I can tell you that there are notes and plans in existence for something that I hope will - eventually - become book-shaped! 🤣

I know the feeling. I originally thought of my Substack as a draft for my next book...now it feels like it's become its own thing entirely.

When you become a famous published author, I hope you'll let me interview you ;)

Yes, that's exactly how I'm finding Substack! And LOL - well, I'll let you know if it ever happens! 😉🤣

Rebecca's 'stack is a must-read. Witty, eloquent, and insightful with wonderfully fresh humor, too. Thanks for this interview! And I'm also wondering about the book.

Lovely interview! Write your book, Rebecca. I suspect a lot of outlining in notebooks might help you get started. 😇

Lovely post and great questions! I have to confess I've never listened to an episode of the Archers and now I feel like I've been missing out!

Although the show’s been running for 72 years, Denise, you’ll find something to love even if you listen to your first-ever episode tomorrow! Like in any community, with people moving in and moving away all the time, you’d soon get to know everybody! 🤣😊

Great post Mark and Rebecca! Great to see you are a Monopoly player. I used to play that so much when I was a kid. I enjoyed learning even more about you. 👍
