Love this Kate. I'm too scared to do paid subs yet, I keep saying when I get to 100 I will, but Im at 77 now (all hard earned) and equally terrified to do it as I was at the very start! Thanks for your candour.

Well done, Kate. You're doing great. I laughed when I read the ‘How I reached 500 subs in less than 10 minutes’ type of posts - I know exactly what you mean. They're so disheartening but you have to ignore them. Well. I've learned to anyway for my own sanity.

Love your posts! I'm a newbie who focused on writing first, now in March just starting to figure out all this connection and statistic stuff. A learning curve for sure, but I'm loving posts like this! Can't wait for the next installment.

I stumbled upon this article somehow. Honestly don't even know how. Divine direction?

At any rate, I just wanted to drop a note to let you know I enjoyed it. After almost two months I'm at 35 subscribers (I'm counting my wife) and 2 paid. I'd say you're doing quite well!

Ah the 6 figures 😆 I’ve given up Instagram because my feed is full of them!!

I had t thought about finding subscribers on this platform - not sure why 🤦🏻‍♀️ might give that a go!

And my votes for Arthur which I love but I’ve not seen 10 so it could change

Brilliant - and thanks for all the links to other Substacks. I'm new on here, and am thrashing about with no idea what I'm doing. Now I've found you, and all the links to other writers.

Thank you! I might actually find my way around now.
