Why did you decide to start a Substack?
</h2>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
It sounds silly and lofty, but I wanted to become a writer. I wanted to move conversations I was having in single images on social media over to a longer forum. I wanted to discuss the details.
</p>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
I also wanted a platform to hold me accountable and develop my creative practice. It’s hard for me to do things without a deadline, and, in a very real way, my Substack is my deadline.

What have you learned about interview outreach?
</h2>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
Famous people will talk to you. It still surprises me when someone says yes to sharing an hour of their time.
</p>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
People are busy. Keep the first email short and put what’s in it for the person you want to interview at the forefront. I wait to send the actual info on when and how the interview will work until I get a response.
</p>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
Rejections happen all the time, but often, when I push a little, people can spare a half hour of time. It is important to be flexible yet offer exact times. You definitely have to find a balance when asking people to work or collaborate with you.

What is the sharpest insight you can offer other writers about growing a Substack publication?
</h2>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
This is not new, but you have to share your work everywhere you can. With your mom’s book group. With your neighbors who make you jam. With your friends from undergrad. Whatever. If people don’t know about it, they can’t enjoy it.
</p>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
If there is one thing I can count on to be really reliable, it is that if you really pour your heart into something, there will be someone out there who needs to hear it; you just have to find them.

What has been a meaningful moment for the growth of your publication?
</h2>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
<span>
I have been thinking a lot about silver linings and our American way of thinking: “Hard things make you strong.” I don’t agree. I would choose to
</span>
<em>
not
</em>
<span>
go through the hard stuff if I could.
</span>
</p>
<p style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 16px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0 0 1em 0;">
<span>
However, I do think going through hard things
</span>
<em>
is good
</em>
<span>
for one thing: creativity. There was a hard moment last year that I wrote about. I felt a little better after sharing it. I found understanding in why it was so hard by leaning into the feelings.
