Cheers Sterling! I'll actually be moving away from Substack by the end of the month, but hopefully that's not a dealbreaker 😅

Aye I'm in the queue for the newsletter migration as I'm not tech savvy enough to want to risk doing it myself. My main site is already on Ghost (thepourover.coffee) although it still needs some TLC
