Farrah is such a great editor, exciting to have her on board. Great that you’re focusing on British writers, I enjoyed Substack Grow but almost everyone on there was US-based. I write Bolton and Beyond, a newsletter of places to go and things to do for families in the North West of the UK. I also subscribe to The Mill which you mention above 👆 and is a brilliant local journalism newsletter about Manchester.

We have SO many wonderful writers at London Writers' Salon writing on Substack. A few come to mind:

- Jenny writes 'Murder, She Cooked' - sharing a recipe each week based on the show: https://murdershecooked.substack.com/

- Nicola writes The Single Supplement - because single women deserve a newsletter of their own: https://thesinglesupplement.substack.com

- Sofia writes Some Little Language - about intercultural communication, language, rituals, books, films, and the ideas that connect them: https://somelittlelanguage.substack.com

- Susannah reflects on the writing life from a British writer in Mexico City https://susannahrigg.substack.com

- Beth writes Curious Minds - curious stories from pop culture, business and history: https://bethcollier.substack.com

Lots more but that's a nice taste!

British here too! Yorkshire born & bred, currently writing out of Scotland. I'm delighted my countryfolk are making more and more of an appearance & I'll keep encouraging as many as I can...

Great to hear Substack sees potential in the UK…

I have recently started writing about football (soccer!) from a British but also international perspective. This platform is really helping me to focus on the writing without having to worry about anything else, like distribution for example. Thank you!

I'm a British based substack writer. Though my blog, Strange Tidings, is about the U.S economy.

That's strange :)

Great initiative! I’m a UK-based writer, publishing Allegorical on here. I seek to show how ordinary things in life have a much deeper meaning and importance that everyone can access. Do check out my Substack if you’re interested!

Reese, I do related with your statement.

I am a creator of contents-a volunteer time at LinkedIn Social Media and is from there who I know many British contributors as well like Ursula V and Richard Bratson. ♥️

Can you do us a favour and add an option for only UK contributors when browsing writers? I'm new round these parts so might be missing something, but every time I search the results are consumed by US contributors (no disrespect to them...)

Strongly agree--except do extend

disrespect to them. Whenever look for something to read, get browbeaten by Californian good will and 'positivity'.

As I writer/cook I’d love an Ottolengi newsletter. I also love Fucsia Dunlop, Ruby Tandoh, and Olia Hercules, to name a few.

Wow! That's great news that Dear O'Blighty is getting back on the map. I am a Brit, too - an Englishman from Sussex to be precise. Spent 30 years in England and the remaining 24 years in my second-home South Korea; I mostly write about 1. How to experience God. 2. Unravelling the tangled mess that politics has got into medicine, and that medicine has got into politics.
