Hi Caroline, happy to have found this post and your newsletter. I quite liked the imagery of the sobbing treadmill. Reminds me of @Jesspan and her sauna experience. Looking forward to reading more :)

This is amazing Caroline, I love this idea. I feel like I just got to know you better. 🤍

I’m so honored to have been mentioned. Thank you!

Also, I think you may be the only person whose “hero post” feels so much like “them,” and makes one want to subscribe instantly.

STOP, you humble me! But I did read a lot of posts and feel like I didn’t learn anything about the person behind the text...maybe I this technically isn’t a hero post lol

sweet caroline

Lonesome Dove!!! you never fail to surprise and delight and again those unseen vital connectors as i feel with others mentioned here and this time when mulling over next damned obscured thing to scrawl i just quoted a song by James McMurtry Larry's son to set whatever the tone will be but within yours and others you admire as well tolerance/patience it feels safe to risk a patch of ice even fall occasionally your encouragement

acknowledgement is cherished as is your instinctive honest courage💜

And running to look up James McMurtry. My dad and I were just laughing about the Oak Ridge Boys.

if i get this post written (and never a sure bet given the distractions at large and mostly made up.....go "manic depression"! right? ) at all you will see the song title its a really damn good one bet you'd like it as it narrates a real "story" unlike some.... not surprising i've never written a song it would to judge by my writing have to be all about me again " lol " but weakly defended ha

What a great idea. I love the it-just-makes-sense feel of having something like this to introduce yourself and your writing. I appreciate the links/categories for your earlier writing that make them so accessible. I’m looking forward to reading more. And thank you—I’m humbled (subtext: shocked lol) by your mentioning my writing!

I've been seeing people talk about doing this all week, and figured I would follow the crowd! But you are right, it just makes sense.

I love your writing so much!!!!

Caroline,

I didn't know this was called a "hero post," but now I know why. So well done, and as others have written, something for us all to be inspired by.
