Amy Welborn Substack

  Amy Welborn is publishing a new Substack site, beginning on June 9.

What is it?

A serialized book about travel, mid-life, spirituality, and yes, saints.


I’ve written online for decades, and never charged for any of it, with no regrets.

But this is different: it’s a book on which I’m working harder than usual (hah) and that I had hoped to get published and therefore, receive royalties for. Doesn’t look like that’s happening….but it also seems a little nuts for me to just offer it up for free.

So while I will continue to blog at Charlotte was Both regularly at no cost, of course, and maybe even Trust Walk, although I think I’ve covered almost everything there I intended to - there will be very little free material here other than the introductory post.

Perks

The free tier will get the introduction and perhaps a post a month. On something - not The Saint Around the Corner, though. Maybe a bite of a fiction piece I’m working on. No promises, friends. You want free? Go visit Charlotte. She’ll be hanging on that web until she dies. Wait, she died. But I’m still here, so….

The monthly tier will receive regular chapters of The Saint Around the Corner twice a month as well as once-a-month chapters of a novel I wrote several years ago, had agent representation for, had nice things said about in the rejection letters and so of course never succeeded in getting published, Nothing Else Occurs to Me.
