Wow that is an incredible amount of reading and subscribing! Lucky writers. I know whenever I see your name pop up in my comments whatever you said is going to bring a smile to my face. I know I've said this before, but you're really a ray of sunshine. :)
💗 💗 💗 💗 this so much, Sandra - isn’t it crazy to see how our ‘stack stats’ shape up (like the year in Spotify!), and SO interesting to see how all our reading/watching/liking etc. habits vary, and right down to the time of day (I’m a too-easily distracted morning reader to your afternoon one, and honestly, I need to work on that - and still I always feel so behind on my favourites - hence, reading this and replying now!!). And I couldn’t be more honoured to get a mention in your summer reads 🥹 - and alongside such incredible company, with Sarah and Beth! Thank you, thank you, so much for reading, sharing and all your encouragement - it’s so wonderful to have connected here and discovered your writing because, RIGHT back at you, I love reading your words, and being inspired by Sandrapop whenever it lands in my inbox 💖✨- HUGE hugs (and I am off to click on many of those links!!). Truly, so honoured. 🥰
Jenni, you are fabulous! If we lived in the same city, you’d be my shopping partner and one of my “ladies that brunch”! The main reason I started Sandrapop was to connect with other women that want to talk about fun things — and you’re a perfect example! Always a pleasure.
🤣 Totally! I’ve got a system: I pick a day to dig into new posts and leave comments. I always hit my go-to newsletters first, then check out what my subscribers are writing. After that, I jump into Notes to discover new writers. It’s even better with a coffee in hand and a few hours to really soak it all in! It’s one of my favorite parts of the week!

Thank you, Christina! I’m going to go blush in the corner now. ☺️

THIS MEANS SO MUCH! 💗 (And 100% right back at you - and me, too. Hope we can get to shop here or there one day!!) XOXO
Yes you MUST come to Orkney one day, well for more than one day! I’ll try & arrange good-ish weather for you!!
Deal!!! I bet it’s beautiful even in crap weather, though. 💖
I’d like to say yes but not always!! It’s better with blue sky
Love your Sandrapop spin on your Substack summer recap! 🥰
Thanks Mica! Had to put my flair on it! 🤣
Think I’m on overload for my stacks!!

I try to do it daily. Need to reconnoiter.
