This is awesome, Erica! All the stories were great, but I love the Christmas story the best. I can see that one being 100% true because people are competitive like that. Especially in the area where I live.

That would be so difficult for me to write some thing so short and concise. Good job. I especially like the Christmas wars.

It's a really fun technique... Difficult for us long-winded types, but awesome writing practice! 💕

I’m so sorry to hear that! I’ve done well on Medium, but I honestly just don’t trust them anymore. So, I limit my time there. Substack is cool once you get used to it!

I get ya! I’m trying to find a solid balance. I know some double post, but I’m trying to limit that..

It really is... But you know me.. positive and passionate! The newsletters are really just like a story/article on Medium, but I like how I'm embracing three separate types and have a schedule. Sooo me! 😆

Hi Heather! It's not quite the same as Medium, of course, but I'm puddling around, figuring out what's next! Thank you for being here with me! 💝
