I’ve dined out, reduced people to laughter (rude!) and, truth be told, felt rather smug at having had my own dot.com. I liken myself to a young Beattie bragging about her grandson having an ‘ology’.
So it is with a degree of sadness that I inform you all, dear, loyal readers, that ‘sueturbutt.com’ is leaving the ‘literary’ building. But (you know by now how I love an adage), as one door closes…or in this case, as one dot.com winds downs, another opportunity comes running towards me, waving jazz hands!
I’m thrilled and super excited to share that I am moving to an alternative writing platform - Substack.
Following a hugely informative, encouraging and interactive mentoring session with Farrah Storr (oh, catch that name !) I’m moving across with effect from 5 April 2023.
Substack has been described as the writer’s Instagram and provides an interactive community where I can network with other writers and get your feedback which is what sueturbutt.com (RIP) couldn’t quite provide me with …I’m feeling brave and up for the challenge.
So…what’s in it for you?
Well, you’ll never have to have the tortuous “have you seen my latest piece… yes I read and ‘liked’ it… oh did you?” conversation with me again, as I will be able to see and read any comments you make.
I would be immensely grateful if you could subscribe (no fee until Hollywood, Loose Women or Take a Break come calling!) to Substack and spread the word to your tribe. You can reach my Substack page by clicking on this link - https://sueturbutt.substack.com/ and subscribing with your email address.
I’m calling my Substack ‘OK Boomer’ (thank you Farrah 😊) and I shall continue to navigate my way through a world that feels as though it’s just a little bit wonky in the usual light hearted way with a pinch of bathos and a smidgen of pathos.
You may see some familiar pieces reappear slash reworked so please bear with me.
Judging by what goes on in my head, there will be many, many ramblings to come.
Thank you, Sue ‘without the dot.com’ Turbutt x
