I am enamored to think there are only 300 fiction Substacks at this time out of thousands of writers. I will absolutely consider myself a pioneer and try not to get dysentery along the journey.

Thank you for sharing your experiences @russellnohelty - I will be revisiting the fiction list like an ant to a sidewalk graham cracker.

Great info. My biggest problem right now is time but I'm hoping to change that and spend more time here. I'm enjoying the community on Substack a lot. Thanks for this post.

I submitted my link so it will grow by one. Absurd spec-historical-cryptid anthology writers unite.

Thank you, Russell. This perspective is really necessary and honestly, it validates some of my own thoughts on this topic.
