What a lovely celebration, Ariana. Congratulations on completing one whole year of writing. Having HUNDREDS of readers is surely nothing tiny, it is a massive achievement. And an even bigger achievement is your consistency. Showing up consistently is step one to success!
My favorite edition was the one with your grandmother, I loved it so much! Thanks for sharing that sunny side of your life with us. I personally would love more positive and intimate stories about your life in one of the nicest cities in one of the nicest countries in this world! Maybe it is my hunger for all content American as a reader from India. 😀
I'm proud of you and can't wait to see as you grow in your expression and creativity in front of my eyes. I love Substack because it allows me to feel like a global citizen, and here I am, feeling like I know you, a complete stranger from thousands of miles away, living a completely different life than me. This is the real magic of writing. Honest and deep expression, combined with honest and deep engagement. And I look forward to much more of it.
All the best for many more years of sharing your life in your unique and gifted voice. Take care!
Punit, thank you so much for your kind words! It means the world to me that you read along and we've been able to bond and connect over these newsletters of ours. I can definitely lean more into the sunny side this year. Your poems are a great example of how we can all embrace the wonder and magic of life despite the doldrums of adulthood. Thanks for inspiring me with your work and supporting me with your readership! Happy to be international newsletter pals :)
