I really enjoyed reading this, Katie. I started my newsletter a little unsure of where I was taking it. Sometimes I'm guilty of overthinking. Also, I've been a writer of various descriptions for decades, but my own newsletter was a whole different animal. Reading about how others are doing it successfully, is a big help. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much Katie for being brave with your 'text message'! Your newsletter has been so wonderful to read and such a great support to me most recently with the sudden, unexpected loss of my sweet daughter. Reading where others are on this grief journey gives me strength, hope and brings a sense of healing. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart!!! xo Janet

I got the nicest note I’ve ever gotten last week. I looked at it again today and discovered there were two stickers I had overlooked!!!! I’m gonna share one with someone who needs it more than I need two.
