Thanks so much, E.A.! I was doing a weekly "newsletterish" from when I first started this pub in the autumn of 2021. I put it on hold summer 2022 when I left England and returned to Canada because I wasn't going to be on Medium for a while.
Just after getting to Calgary, I had a nasty leg injury/surgery and have had to pretty much learn how to walk again (getting there, 19 months later).
I deleted all writers when I put the pub on hold because I wasn't going to be on Medium and didn't want people to submit and wonder why I wasn't responding.
I wasn't able to start up the pub again and re-add writers who asked until sometime later last year, and then started the weekly newsletterish again.
I never have deadlines for my "invitations" (I'm not a fan of the word "prompt"). They're just a bit of inspiration for people to write about something that comes up whenever the mood hits.
Thank you for reading this and for your kind comments!
