Finishing the Hat w/ Elle Griffin

[Augusta Sagnelli]

I love this continuation of y'alls substack friendship. I feel like it is one of the early days big successes of Substack making real life meaningful connections between fellow writers. Good stuff.

[Elle Griffin]

Oh totally, I love how we've been able to find a bunch of literary sorts here!

[Katharine Beckett Winship]

How generous you two are. Thank you for sharing what you are sure about, what you wonder about, and how you handle this writing life. Sending love from the mountains of Western North Carolina 🌱

[Samuél Lopez-Barrantes]

Thanks for the kind words Katharine, sometimes I find it far more interesting to have an impromptu dialogue versus a more "official" discussion ... the unknown is where the real treasures lie. As for western North Carolina, it's one of my favorite places in the USA! I grew up in Chapel Hill/Durham. but spent a lot of time up near Grandfather Mountain as a kid ... where are you located?

[Katharine Beckett Winship]

I’m in Black Mountain, looking southwest. I’m working on getting Rights of Nature for our Swannanoa River. It’s gorgeous here.

Lived in Villandraut during my little years. They say I wouldn’t speak English when we returned.

I love your story.🌱

[Elle Griffin]

So glad it was helpful. Nice to meet you Katharine!

[Katharine Beckett Winship]

Elle, I’ve been telling all my local Substackers to look at your astonishing body of work.🌱

[Elle Griffin]

Wow, that is so nice. Thank you so much! 🥰
