Hi Skool Community. I want to share my Substack page that I've created in hopes to get some subscribers in the weeks leading up to self-publishing my book, 'Unemployable! The Psychological Toll of Proving Your Worth'. I am posting 12 essays in the next couple of months that relate directly to my book, and hope that it is available mid-May or so. If you are curious, please visit, like, subscribe, share etc! I am hoping that by getting this book out of my computer, I can focus on my newer writing and have a lot more great things to offer. Thanks! Here's my latest essay: https://open.substack.com/pub/elsiepress/p/there-and-back-again?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&utm_medium=web

This is from a book my grandfather gave me before he died. I used to share this with my high school students when I was a teacher. [Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation by Lynne Truss] Since we are digging in this week, I wanted to share it here. I love this. What comes up for you when you read these two letters?
