Midstack: A Home for Midlife Writers on Substack
We are thrilled to announce Midstack from the editors of Midstory Magazine and the HerStories Project!
For almost a year we’ve published personal essays and articles from midlife women on Substack. Before that, for a decade, we’ve celebrated women’s writing on our website, anthologies, online classes, and writing groups.
Now, introducing….
Midstack is a community for midlife women who publish on Substack.
We want to do more than publish women’s writing on our own Substack. We want to connect midlife women to each other, to guide women toward reaching their Substack goals, to support each other’s success, and to promote other publications and outstanding writing.
Midstack has three components:
The Midstack Directory is a curated list of publication written by midlife women on Substack. While not all of the writers in the directory write exclusively on areas related to midlife, each addresses these topics in a substantial way.
To view the directory —» CLICK HERE (Coming soon)
To submit your Substack publication to be considered for inclusion in the Directory —» CLICK HERE
Midstackers is a community forum just for women writing on Substack.
It’s a community, outside of social media, for writers to:
share their writing and get feedback
find opportunities for collaboration on Substack
learn about Substack through lessons and workshops
connect with other women through the forum and live meetups
ask questions when they’re stuck
Midstackers is FREE for paid subscribers of Midstory Magazine.
Stay tuned for more information about joining this community!
Finally, Midstack Reads is a regular round-up of previously published writing by midlife women from across Substack. We’ll post our Featured Reads 2-3 times each month.
