Thank you, Amy! Also I’m still (still!!) processing your reading from Writing in the Dark on Friday. Just … wow. 🧑

You are so kind to say so: that means a lot to me, coming from such a wonderful editor who is encouraging to so many writers.

Whoohoo! This sounds great. And I recognize the moment of realizing that I’m not honoring my own abilities, and the movement towards doing more of this. It’s such an important thing to recognize ourselves, and to be seen this way by others.

I just tried to sign up but it won’t complete my registration. I click the no payment option, and it takes me to payment info, and gets stuck there. I’ll try it again later on my laptop, hopefully it works!

Hi my lovely, I haven't received any emails about the summit, other than my receipt of payment from thrivecart; I don't know where to email to get the details?

Hello, I registered today and also haven't received a link. I got the Thrivecart receipt, but that's all.

I just watched and followed the transcript of your session after the fact as I'm in a faraway Aussie timezone. Very well done to you and Christin.

Just wanted to say that you were great! I very much appreciated your talk and your self-advocacy to let it happen!
