Thank you, thank you, thank you, Tara! Trust me, I've tried Substack's help pages more than once or twice, probably at least 10 or more times, and more 'flummoxed' than I had patience for (or confidence in my ability to make sense of the many great tips I'm sure are available) . . . and yet no tutorial-like step-by-step 'hand-holding' or…

I was about to rush off with a quick thank you for your kind suggestion. . . . and something about your "Just Google" it got me to pause enough to take your suggestion literally and I "Googled" (actually I use Ecosia now as my search engine: https://www.ecosia.org/) "Substack Help" and the 3rd entry was a few YouTube videos . . . the 1st was "A Beginner's Guide to Substack: How to use substack" https://youtu.be/r8He_liq3sY?si=T-g8nc9H_I1NjsDL . . . and I found the 'tutorial' the 'trainer's wheels' I needed. Thank you, thank you, Tara . . . and I look forward to joining you for some Quiet Reading
Hooray, Tom! I confess that when I look for things only within Substack Help, I don't always find exactly what I need right away. Too many topics are adjacent. But if I back out to a browser and search for it, I almost always see exactly the right instructions. Funny. Glad it worked for you, too. I love Quiet Reading during the winter holidays, so posts are on the way. :-)
