Hey, I really don’t feel good going this, but I have a memoir here on substack I’ve worked on for 15 years; it’s about a 40 year career as an artist-composer, and largely being known as the ‘protege’ of Philip Glass, along with a lot of interesting people - and myself having extreme bi polar disorder throughout.
It’s going ‘okay’ as a serialized memoir, but Substack is doing nothing to help it reach an audience. I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look if you’re interested (but I’m not allowed to post a link). Thanks!
And, would this be for the “prize for books” category as well? (I visited the link for it and it said expired.) Thank you so much for your love of literature! 😻🥰
Getting excited!
Yes! Announcement coming this week!
How exciting! When will the contest close for 2026?

Thank you, I so appreciate you! 🥹 Especially because I not have a ton of new books in my TBR pile from the winners! 😻
Absolutely!
