Just to say thank you all so much to those who bought me ‘coffee’ - I’ll be highly caffeinated and bouncing off the walls for sometime 😉😂

But more than that, thanks so much for the encouraging and thoughtful comments.

They always mean so much to me and make me feel a little less alone in the world. I hope I make you feel that way too x

I'm not seeing an option to 'buy you a coffee' anywhere - or are you on buymeacoffee.com?

We’ve been harping on about you getting recognition and perhaps remuneration for your talent for writing for ages. Nothing would please me more. You’ve helped me and I dare say a few more people survive some serious crap in the past few years with your humour and forthrightness.

Thank you so much and bless you.

We’ve all helped each other, my love, and will continue to do so with whatever skills we have.

I very much appreciate you being around. It’s been a very tough few years for you particularly I know. X

Consider my heart swollen (and not in a toxic spike protein sense). Thank you for everything you share with us, Julie. I’m proud to be amongst the followers of a great writer. I guess that, given I comment pretty frequently, it will sound disingenuous when I say I can’t put it into words. If I had to choose one word to sum you up - Important. You deserve all the praise and support you get.

I think you’re the first person, in a long time that I’ve read feels the same way about compliments that I do. I first came across that concept in a book (unfortunately I have no idea which book) I read while having an all out battle with my own head. Learning to accept compliments is one of my favorite things I’ve ever learned.

Oh Hannah, when you write something I feel the same.

I still recall the post you did about that musical (about someone pretending to be friends with a high school kid who died, I can’t remember the name). I hadn’t heard of it prior to that and you really gave some interesting perspectives.

I know you are busy but hopefully the world (myself included) will hear a little more from you again soon x

Thank you. I want to go forward accepting and attracting with gratitude.

It’s a shift for me but one I now feel comfortable with.

I fully acknowledge part of myself as ‘a writer’ and put that out there to the universe with love in my heart, fear in my belly and a smile on my lips.

Thank you, lovely.

I’m not twisting anyone’s arm or anything, am I?

Just saying

“If you want to then yeah, I’m cool with that, my writing is worth something.”

Everyone’s time is worth something and if people feel blessed and are able they should have the option to buy you a coffee , just like a mate would do . You need to just get over it lol 😂

I know. You’re right, and writing this has felt like a real unburdening exercise. How to write about this feeling of release without sounding like a pretentious New Age twat 😂😂

Well done, you're a brilliant writer and I love reading your stuff. You've a beautiful way with words, and remember when I first contacted you via FB, I'd assumed you was a professional and wanted you to proof read my poem! Lol I know talent when I see it! Take the money! 🤩♥️✨️ xx

I’ve wrestled with this for a while. How to accept money naturally flowing my way for something i do freely with love, without turning into my own vulgar ticket tout. Hopefully, balance is now struck🙏
