I completely relate to every single thing you wrote here, and you put into words a struggle I’ve been having and given me a path out of it. Thank you for this!

I’m so glad! I’d really been struggling with *something* whenever I set out to do anything creative for months. It wasn’t until I took things a step further and acknowledged that my issue wasn’t in the creation but the pressure that comes after that I was able to release some things.

Appreciate you sharing your thoughts- I have to admit that I think Substack seems to be a cleaner, more organized and easier to find platform (for me at least!). I think it's good to recognize which platform give you the most comfortable process without making you feel like you NEED to do this or that.

Keep doing you and what permits you to evolve and grow in what you love doing!

On the subject of a "landing page", are you aware of Buffer? It's kind of like a much prettier/design-centric Linktree. Here's Wolven Press' Buffer landing page:

Something to consider! I need to build one for myself, for sure.

That’s pretty clean. I’ve been using Beacons and I don’t hate it. But I’ll have to consider Buffer in the coming weeks due to how nice that looks
