Hello friends, my long term project, loosely called Finding Joy in the Middle aka “My Best Things List” is available on Substack as a newsletter. I’ll share some specific posts to give you a taste for what kinds of writing I do there. Meanwhile, I invite you to join the list, which is free (but you can choose to pay with a subscription, which is always appreciated and helps fund my wild search for joy and other writing and artistic pursuits.)

What you get with my newsletter is a daily email with my “list” for the day (generally I write these at the very end of my day in the midwest of the US, so for most people it ends up being in their inbox for them the next morning. I’m a night owl. It’s a whole thing.) I always include photos of the things I’ve seen or done that day. The practice of looking for good/joy/best things each day is grounded in the field of positive psychology. It is a technique we can all use to feel better in a busy world filled with so much that is so challenging. Join my list on Substack and we will muddle through this together.
