I have been reading your block for years now, and now it’s so nice to be able to listen to it as well in the voice of your truly. Thank you so much. I found the podcast by accident, I’m not sure if you mentioned the podcast in your monthly email if you did then I missed it. But I’m so happy I found it now. I love, love your writing.
