What Did You Write This September?
A Midstack Meetup and share your recent post and note with our community of midlife women
It’s almost October, and I’m still processing that it’s not August anymore.
For me, September has been about getting back into routines after a long summer break.
I’ve been observing — but not doing much about — a lot of the changes and chatter about Substack.
I’d like to invite you to a Zoom Midstack meetup on Wednesday, October 1st at noon Eastern.
If you’re new here, I host monthly (or semi-monthly) gatherings of midlife women writing on Substack. We introduce each other briefly and then talk about our Substack journeys, challenges, and wins.
Lots of friendships and collaborations have resulted from many of these meetings, and I always come out of them inspired and energized. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, confused, and/or wanting to find more of your people on Substack, I encourage you to join us.
Can’t make the entire meetup? Pop in and say hi!
SIGN UP FOR A ZOOM LINK HERE.

Write a brief introduction (a sentence or two about the topic) to your post or note.
Post the link.
Read through other posts. Find at least one or two with which you connect.
Restack, write a comment, or even cross-post.
Happy last weekend of September. (oof!)
I wrote about going to a Heart concert (which was amazing by the way, those ladies are still killing it in their 70s) and being slapped in the face with an existential crisis.

Hi Jessica - thanks for this sharing opportunity! I hope you're well.
I started a collaboration project with some caregiver friends. 'Letters from a Caregiver' Every Thursday, our Younger Selves Receive a Letter of Wisdom, Compassion, and Hope. This is the first - Intro and my letter: https://www.carermentor.com/p/letters-from-a-caregiver
This new section in my Carer Mentor publication, is growing with letters from two other caregivers this month, as well as another letter from myself yesterday https://www.carermentor.com/s/letters-from-a-caregiver
It's been comforting to read each other's letters. I'm looking forward to seeing what everyone else has been publishing.
