I had the brilliant idea to start a newsletter and decided to create a substack account (the date as I write this is December 22, 2022). Imagine my surprise when I realised that I’d already created a newsletter a year ago and just left it to rot…

Am I going to do the same again? I hope not. I like to think that I’m not that kind of person, but who knows?

Why substack? Mostly because I need an easy way for people to subscribe to my writings and my website - victorywrights.com felt a little too serious.

That’s my fault, I know, but I’m here now.

What’s this newsletter going to be about? Well… everything. I usually have some pretty random thoughts about some pretty random things. And I know it’s corny for a writer to start a newsletter about random thoughts but, here we are.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading this newsletter. I’ll try to add a lesson for every publication, but sometimes the lesson will be that there is no lesson.

I didn’t have a title for this but after writing the previous paragraph, I got the idea to title this newsletter “On life and living”. And perhaps that’s lesson one.

Some of the pieces will come to you after you’ve begun.

Till next time,

Victory.
