I joined SmallStack at ground zero on my own Substack I see people as people and believed after blogging for over 10 years and getting very little notice for writing my thoughts and my heart publicly I might find the kindness and feedback here, so I joined. There are a few extremely kind subscribers I now have who have given me feedback and encouragement. I am so grateful to them and for them. Yet, my hope is to get my work noticed more. I hoped SmallStack’s offer of independent writing would lead me to a space I fitted into without being judged for being an average American woman with independent thoughts and expression in writing them. I’m still unsure of my footing or if I am accepted for simply who I am in my writing. I know I’m out of my league with respect to education because I have not had an opportunity to attain a degree. Yet, my urge to write has been a part of me for more than fifty five of my seventy one years. I sincerely believe I have a story to tell and a need to impart what I know… so others may feel free to do the same, I think SmallStack is a great place for all of these things. Once the launch happens and the library is active a lot of peoples work may have a great home and be sated. So thank you so much for the interview here and the clear explanations. All of it resonated with me.
You know, Kathy, I don't think a degree is a requirement for your writing to be good or sincere or valuable to yourself or to others. Don't get me wrong, I have a lot of love for education, but I also think our voices matter simply because they are ours. I'm glad your voice is here.

This is wonderful to hear, Kathy, and I'm so glad you're following that urge to write.
Thank you so much for all you do
