Thanks for sharing. 2023 brought you a lot of “downs” and some wonderful “ups”. I hope 2024 will be a great year for you.

This: “I want to spend more time here on Substack and less elsewhere..for 2024, I’d like to try and post at least once per week. Twice would be nice. I would also like to do more collaborative projects related to Substack, like interviews or guest posts. I want to become more…present, I guess, in this community and connected to other writers”

I’m in a similar place, I think. If you have something in mind that could use a collaborator, I’d love to know about it!
