💬 Our First Midstack Share Thread
let's use the power of community to boost your latest post or Note
What have you written that you especially want more people to read?
I’ve added dozens of new publications to the Midstack Directory. I’ve gone through each and every publication, and I know that you are all writing extraordinary posts. Let’s make sure they are read by other midlife women like us!
I’m pleased to announce our first bi-monthly share thread.
Let’s help each other grow and find new readers.
Here’s how the thread works:
Share a recent or favorite Post or Note in the comments.
Also, before you share the link, provide a short summary or explanation. (“I wrote this post because…. “ “This essay is about….”)
Choose 1-2 other Posts or Notes from other writers in the thread and do any or all of the following:
write a thoughtful comment beneath the Post or Note
write an original Note of your own about the Post or Note
restack the Post or Note
mention it in one of your own posts
cross-post it from your own Substack
Please note: Our first Midstack workshop was scheduled for Monday, September 30th, but, alas, I got Covid over the weekend, and re-scheduled it for Monday, October 7th at 1 p.m. Eastern. Please sign up here to join us! We’d love to meet you and hear about you and your Substack.

I wrote this essay "An Epidemic of Never Being Alone" for my Substack Matriarchy Report, when I realized that after I had my baby, I hadn't been alone in my home for any significant stretch of time for almost three years.
Many parents, especially women, are deprived of time to themselves, and in the comments it was wonderful to see how many women related to this. It was also delightful to see how many mid-to-late life women live alone and LOVE IT. Which no one talks about!

Loving this thread already!
Is midlife necessarily a crisis or is it all about getting real, unbecoming what we have been pushed to be and finally allowing ourselves to become that creative being we were meant to be from the start?
