Congratulations on your 1 year milestone! How exciting. My name is Matt — I am originally from Arizona but now call Oregon home. I am a musician/composer, and I share original music once every month in my newsletter, Fog Chaser. Glad to be part of the StoryLife community!
Thanks for taking a moment to introduce yourself Matt. I look forward to your music newsletter every month. I usually don't like writing with music on in the background if it distracts me. But now I have a playlist called Writing Songs which is largely all your tracks I could find and I write in the morning with that playlist playing. Your music calms the chatter in my brain and helps me tap into the flow state. Thanks for bringing your good vibes!
Congratulations on one year! I am Lisbeth L. McCarty, and I am an attorney and free-lance writer from Norman, OK (home of the University of Oklahoma). I also have a special love for art, music, and photography.
Howdy all. I'm Jim. I grew up in Northern California and now call Southern Mexico home. I write Jim's Shorts, a weekly flash or micro-fiction publication here on Substack. These days most of my posts are based off prompts readers supply--a living thing, an inanimate object, and a location. I never got that good at it, but I played bass guitar in a couple garage bands. My musical highpoint was a flamenco singer from Spain recording lyrics over a flamenco-ish bass track I noodled up.
Thanks for introducing yourself Jim. Your flash fiction was the first time I was introduced that art form. I admire your tenacity. You told me once in a writing group that your lifelong dream was to live in Mexico. Then, through your stories and posts, I witnessed you jump off the cliff of normal life, and move down south to realize your dream. What an inspiration!! I'm so happy you're part of this community.
Hi there Michelle, well, we do know each other, however, here I am again to say a big hi to you. I love reading your stories, they are funny, earthy and a myriad of many things. My name is Jeanne, I travel here and there, make films, teach and at the moment spend load of time with my granddaughter side-kick, Violette. I love people, life, lust for life, Iggy Pop, looking at clouds and meeting new people like you. Well done! Avec amour
Hello Jeanne! Thanks for introducing yourself to everyone here. Hey StoryLifers - Jeanne is a wonderful human being, lives in Europe, and writes a heartfelt newsletter called Soaps & Sagas. As she says above, she's a filmmaker and travels a lot. I know her through a Substack writing group where she lit up the zoom screen with her bright, effervescent spirit. Check out her work sometime if get a chance.
