As a mom to a 2 year old this very specific feeling of unexpected ease and success really resonated. Also very much here for all the women's diaries! 🤦🏻🤗
Hahaha I guess nobody told them, all the great art can be boiled down to diary entries... kinda like all romance stories are pretty much Cinderella? Cmon guy!! Personally, I had an excellent time monetizing my diary (it was unfair, I had the best editor)
Edith. Edith. Please do not listen to the haters who hate on substack. I friggin love yours and you are talented and your mermaid project is very very cool.
The Four Seasons book has such great music and drawings and such a completely unintelligible story! She’s carrying around an apple tree with her??? There are like 3 different festivals and it rains over and over again! And then the apple tree is somehow dead because she dropped it??! That’s not how trees work! Just pick it up and leave the pot! Reading it makes me furious but we read it every day
a man's diary entry is called a podcast. substack away!
While it may be true that some women are monetizing their journal entries, it is also true that many of us WANT TO PAY WOMEN’S JOURNAL ENTRIES.
(Fuck that person)
As Aristotle said in his Poetics, Fuck them.

Warm and wonderful and smiling. My dad ( only) read to me . Those happy memories of eighty years ago linger. I remember the books too.

Nothing better than a smooth day with one of the kiddos!
You manage to pack so much emotion into your illustrations! Just lovely.
Thank you, Tina!
Literature = diary entries. Gender is not a factor, except to those who are jealous and looking to belittle.
I spend so much on stickers, I feel that my substack has monetized ME

You don’t go to parties with your potted tree?
If I go to multiple different harvest related gatherings in one day, you better believe I’m leaving Pickle and the tree both at home with a sitter
lol
You so could write a novel Edith.
You write/draw about the ordinary, daily, grindy, joyful bits of motherhood in such a beautiful, relatable, simple way.
Also, I don't feel like you're selling anything here.
Monetizing your diary entries is bad?
Just keep making.
