Hi, I'm Rachel and I finally started again on my passion for writing with my Substack. Your goal of 100 books in a decade is really admirable! I was thinking I might just publish one book by the time the next decade role around for me. Your reasons for publishing is very motivating for me, especially with the thought that there's more books out there that anyone can read in their lifetime, so who would want to read mine?

Hi, I'm Lisa. It's great to be here. I'm from the UK but love living in different countries. I'm in Slovenia these days. I love to write and draw about change, culture, creativity and sustainability. My Substack is called The Metamorphosis Map.

I would love to compile my sketches and thoughts into a book. But keep changing my mind about how and what the title could be!

Hello Neera,

My name is Nonye, I live in Lagos, Nigeria. I have been trying to write a book since forever...........all in my head :) .I actually did start but I stopped..... so much going on in my life, all competing for attention.

I used to write a blog....frequently, but again, I have not written for a long time. My life is such that I feel I NEED to write books about........... a single woman, adopted a child who at 5 months was diagnosed with CP. And in my effort to find help and support in a country where none existed, I started the first center to create awareness of the condition CP and provide much needed services for them. It's been a journey. With 6 decades behind me, I was feeling too old to start the journey of book writing, but reading Sally, I am thinking maybe, just maybe.... fingers crossed.... you maybe the prompt and guide I need.

Hi Neera, I am not actually writing a book but a series of blogs on the travels my husband and I have done over many years. They have been taken from the many journals I have written and sort of edited to fit the profile and try and engage with my reader. Not so sure I am doing it all that well, although when I stopped for awhile I had people asking when I was coming back. Anyway, I figured I couldn’t go wrong if I trusted in you to give me a better idea of what I should be doing to benefit my writing. I am a bit older than you, married, have four children, 8 grandchildren, live in Melbourne, love to paint and write
