✏️ I feel like I’m not the only one, but what do you do when you feel like you’ve poured yourself into a piece of writing, you feel it’s a home run, but there isn’t really any feedback. As a Substack baby, I would love to know how you pick yourself up and just move forward.

It's a tricky one, for sure. The fact that people don't comment or click like or whatever, doesn't necessarily mean they didn't enjoy it - some people just don't engage with content in those ways, they prefer to just read. Years ago, before the Internet existed, you would just buy books and there was no way to click like or to comment, but by buying it you had already shown your support to the author. I think you really have to look at this the same way. If people are viewing your content, and they're coming back to view more content, that is them showing support and that is positive feedback. Hope that helps... 😎
Awww that is a lovely why to view it! I love the link back to books. Thank you so much! I want to have a healthy relationship with Substack, so I will definitely keep this in mind as I stretch my wings here.

It’s unfortunate when that happens but you just have to keep going. The same thing has happened to me.
Nice to know I'm not the only one!
