A brief update
Taking a little break
I’ve got an incredibly busy fall semester ahead of me (and six weeks behind me already!), not to mention a new job (virtual assisting) and teaching English as a Second Language, and for this reason I’m pausing Substack writing until December. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate all of you who read, support, and contribute to (!) this little newsletter. Because I’m not able to offer any writing during this time I have also put a pause on paid subscriptions to Something Funny, Something True— if you have a monthly subscription, you won’t be billed during this period, and if you were thinking about signing up for a paid sub (either monthly or annually) that option will not be available until December.
In the meantime, you can read my work intermittently at
and perhaps in a new magazine or two depending on acceptances and rejections for things I sent out a while ago. :)Thanks again. You have no idea what your presence here means to me.


Best wishes on your new job, teaching, and studies! Will miss seeing you around here more often but glad to know you are gathering up more stories and observations in the real world.
So glad you’re taking a small break!!
