Hi! I have many folks I'm grateful to, so want to share a thank you note to you here.
People who read my words and kind folks who've chatted with me online while I've been finding my voice after a tough time ~ thank you to you! I began writing on Medium ~ a fab reading and writing platform ~ a few years back. That helped me rediscover my voice after I’d paused from sharing publicly. I'm thankful such wonderful places exist.
Thank you, if anyone from Medium reads this!
Thank you, too, to editors, who’ve looked over my work and helped me regain confidence. Plus, an inspiring writer I’m thankful to have been invited to collaborate with.
If you've read my shorter notes on Bluesky ~ and chatted with me there ~ a huge thank you to as well. What I see you share often uplifts and I appreciate you 💜
Thank you to my grandparents. Who I wrote notes to as a child, and who ~ I now see ~ encouraged my writing by writing back to me.
My wonderfully supportive husband, who I give oodles of thanks to. My children, as well, who've changed my life in many wonderful ways 💗
There's Jannis at 'Magic Pages' (whose work has helped me make this 'Ghost' website happen). Chosen because Jannis clearly cares about what he does ~ and is also cognisant about sustainability, with his websites working as much as possible on renewable energy.
All the therapists I've worked with thro' the years ~ thank you to you. People who've taught me much and wise folks who've passed on their wisdom, too. The friends I have and women who I'm in supportive, kind circles with ~ who I dance, laugh, chat, learn and cry with. My family who made me who I am today.
So many thank you's!
I'd like to add a note here to say that I put my heart and soul into words I write. So, while this is far from necessary, if you've ever found yourself feeling better after reading words I share you can donate a one-off tip here to say thank you. Or choose to pay to receive my notes ~ a way you can help me climate care if you'd like ~ as I donate to plant a tree if you choose this option.
However, I promise you are very welcome to read my notes free of charge.
Words of thanks and lovely moments I share with kind people who read my words mean the world to me. So, while I say a sincere and heartfelt thank you if you choose to pay or ever do gift a monetary tip, I also greatly appreciate the thank yous I receive in other ways.
Thank YOU for being here and for reading today.
Love, Emma ♥️
