Thank you for liking my stories and letting me hear from you. I love that. I want you to share your story and continue to take the journey with us to the land of shrimp, collards and grits.

We will become a vital storytelling community of folks who love the South.

Dear Pat, wishes for a Happy and Healthy New Year. I must be the dumbest person you know. I have tried to get into Substack on my Mac and it just doesn't happen. Is there anyway it can work on my computer? Thank you for caring.

Hi Sissy and Happy New Year to you! If you can receive e mail, you can receive Substack.

It's just an e mailed newsletter. Be sure to check your junk mail - sometimes things end up in there. Best to you and stay in touch.

Hi, Pat, I only get to read the first part of your stories because you send me to that thing on my phone. I am 85 and my computer is where I read things. I don't do well on my phone except for photos, texts, calls, ect. How can I read the rest of your stories on my email?

hugs,

Sissy LIngle
