5 things...

1: Today. 2: Last week's fiasco. 3: 24 hours left. 4 & 5: Two new articles. (One of them is about love.)

1. It’s Sunday evening. On the counsel of my consort, I just watched Carlos Alcaraz beat Novak Djokovic in the men's final in Wimbledon and shed a tear. Life keeps rolling, hearts keep beating, and nature keeps reminding us that she is the ultimate force.

2. After last week’s email fiasco, I have moved all subscribers over to Substack, to be included in my email series titled ‘Life Notes’. A continuation of the emails as I have written them to you for almost 10 years now. As a gift, I have also given you one week’s free subscription to all the subscriber-only articles in ‘Kismet’. May they bring you much delight and entertainment.

3. The early bird enrolment price for my 4-week creative writing course ‘MUSE’ closes in 24 hours and goes up to £200 tomorrow night. If having a lovely, creative and productive time writing with me and the delightful group that is currently forming feels exciting or fun for you, now is a good time to join.

4. & 5. I wrote two new articles:

I hope you enjoy this new way and format and approach to my emails to you. I feel relieved to be able to bring all of my words and work into one place instead of spread across various platforms as they have been. Thank you for your grace and patience with the move as I find an elegant way to keep writing and sharing with you.

Love,

Vienda
