I am not used to being welcomed. Well, not for a long time, anyway. but then, come to think of it, people stopped taking a liking to me after they thought I killed my husband. So, it feels good to be welcomed now. I haven't found any other characters here, but maybe we can get them to join.

You should start a community of characters on Substack! I bet it would be really popular.

My author recommended you to me, since you are a ghost writer too. I am a writer here, and a ghost as well, so we have something in common. Of course, I am not as well-versed in the writing tools and genres of your day, but I am learning more with each visit. I am thinking of sharing stories of the other characters in my story. If I write those for them and sign their names, is that like what you do?

Yes, Elcira - that’s exactly right. Welcome, by the way!

I've been freelancing and ghost-writing for clients for over 15 years. I love doing it for the same reasons you've cited. Now I'm working on how to balance my own (novel) writing and freelance client work. So far so good. I've taken time off through the holidays, and so did my clients. We'll be hitting it hard starting tomorrow (Jan. 6). Thanks for your newsletter!
