Wonderful! I was hooked at the self-help nonsense of “Potential schmotential”! I can wait to follow along. Your characters, as always, are alive and honest. ❤️

Oh Jan, I’m only reading this now (very behind on my Substacks) and so sorry to read this news. I hope you’re recovering well and feeling ok in every other way.

Thanks Keris, yes it all blew up since we last talked! I am healing well and off on a new adventure which has some interesting aspects, one of which is fundraising for my treatment in Japan. There's an interesting story there...

I loved the part about the friend on her "Minnie Riperton perch" - I'm always concerned my wine glass is going to shatter whenever that song, 'Loving You', comes on! Haha... It sounds like a fun project, so best of luck with it. And best of luck with your treatment, too... 😎
