Thanks for including us, Nadia! Definitely going to check out the other ones listed, too. Really intrigued by the creativity so many writers/creators are showing right now -- it's amazing to watch unfold.
If you're stuck at home and looking for new ways to make the most of your time, here are some emerging Substacks that might be perfect for you:
Cooking at home: Check out Sam Koppelman's "Cooking in Quarantine," where top chefs share creative recipes using pantry staples. Also, Debbie Koenig's "The Family Plan" adapts meal plans to quarantine life, making family meals easier.
Working from home: Andrew Stromme's "The WFH Times" offers a daily dose of therapy and practical tips for adjusting to a new work routine. Bill Murphy's "Working From Home" newsletter helps you develop good habits and stay productive in your remote work setup.
Exercising from home: Stay active with MP FITT's weekly workout routines adapted for home and outdoor workouts. If you're into running, join "Half Marathons," a community for runners of all levels.
Bored at home: Combat cabin fever with "Sleepathome Camp," which offers daily fun activities, including family-friendly crafts and dance parties. For some remote-friendly social time, consider joining Walt Hickey's Book Club or starting your own book club on Substack.
Remember, we're all in this together, and now's a great time to explore new hobbies, write, or connect with others remotely. If you have any ideas for themed pop-up Substacks you'd love to see, share them in the comments below. Stay strong and take care!
Thanks for all the information! I especially enjoyed "What to Read While Stuck At Home."
I also have a new substack filled mostly with short speculative stories that can be read anywhere, in one short sitting. The newsletter is titled "Speculative Encounters" and has only been up for less than three weeks: https://specstories.substack.com/
Thanks for this list! Wanted to share my newsletter that I've been writing while I've been stuck at home. It's called Gridology, and it's where I map questions on a 2x2 grid. Check it out here: https://gridology.substack.com/
Great resources for our new stay-at-home lives. Thanks! We're sharing kid-friendly fitness and innovative games for families. We hope they help ease the cabin fever! https://justinandlucretiacahill.substack.com/
Thank you for this! I am an entertainment journalist sharing entertainment options (other than the usual film & TV streaming offers) over on In a New York Mile. https://therundown.substack.com Welcoming suggestions of things to add, as well!

Very helpful, thank you. I am an educator and technologist, and I will be writing more about "teaching from home". Here is yesterday's post: https://readbyexample.substack.com/p/four-strategies-for-effective-online
This was really nice Nadia, thank you for sharing.
I write a newsletter about parenting and education, and I will probably be posting about kid-friendly activities and routines for the foreseeable future! Today’s: https://extracredit.substack.com/p/social-isolation-preschooler-and
