I watched your interview with Sarah Fay and I was amazed at the amount of information you both shared - and horrified at the amount of information I didn't know! It seems that Substack is a platform like no other for writers and I'm so happy to be a part of it. Thank you for your generosity in teaching and sharing.

Hi Sandra, nice to read from you!

I know... when you're a beginner, there are so many things to learn.

Today I tried to set up a page for my membership and thought it would take 5 minutes.

I'm still trying to figure it all out.

I ended up watching a YouTube video of a creator showing how to use it.

I felt bored ^^ I know I'm not. I just need to learn the platform.

Same goes for Substack!

I'm cheering you on!

If you want to join our crew inside the Substack School, we'd be super happy to get to know and help you.

Most people subscribe to mine and Sarah's Substack and that's nice to see. 😍

Sarah is a true professional!

Hugs,

Kristina

This post makes me feel good about being on Substack! I question leaving it from time to time, not for any good reason, maybe just from the urge to not be on too many platforms, but thank you Kristina!

Hi JR, So nice reading from you. You're on my interview partner list 😁since I'd like to talk with you about self-publishing. Maybe in June and a statement for a video in May?

So many want to self-publish a book but don't have a clue how to do it.

I guess you could tell how to write and publish a book, am I right?

You're approach of writing and taking those stories and creating a book of it is also my way how I produce my content, courses, resources.

Yes! Let’s get something on the books!

Yes, I will send you an e-mail in the next few weeks.

Hello Carmen,

Love your postcard 💡 idea!

Thanks so much for your lovely feedback.

This week I'll publish an interview with David who's experimenting with Notes a lot.

Great that you're now part of my German speaking community.

I talked with my friends here and no one knows about Substack.

I think there's a long way to go.

Wanted to contact the Head of Writer Relations here in Germany and ask him for an interview about the status quo.

What do you think about it? Or do you have any specific questions?

Oh yes an interview with Andreas would be fun. It’s so early stages when thinking about a German substack world so I’m not sure whether he’d want to come on and speak on behalf of substack (or even can) but worth a try.

Anything language and localisation capabilities would be interesting. What’s on their product roadmap, what are they envisioning so multiple languages can be successful and not just English. Translation…

I know... I also have sooo many questions!

Great interview - thanks to both of you.

Hi Nigel, what an honor. Thanks for your comment.

I'm looking for someone to talk about Substack and podcast. Plus, the new partnership between Substack and Spotify.

You'd be a great interview partner.

Would you be open for an interview?

I'd also talk with you about the broadcasting/media landscape in the UK!

I wish you a wonderful Sunday 🌞 and greetings from th German West Coast.

All the best,

Kristina

Hi Jean,

I bet you wanna win a spot!

I'll let you know.

I'm in the middle of figuring out how to set up my coaching page. There will be a handful sessions available starting in May. Yeah!

Most want to get to know me ^^

You're already part of my community. We can skip this. I want to get to know YOU better then.

Hugs!
