It’s fabulous seeing Susan come to Substack. No one got me started with low-fat vegan recipes more than she did with her Fat Free Vegas website. Her recipes are delicious, healthy, and there is a cozy, homespun feel to them. I can’t say enough about her.

Liz Explores

By Liz Medford

I tell stories from my life that are “raw and relatable” about infertility, mental health, and adventure. Subscribe for free and I’ll send them to your inbox!

Greetings, all. I’ve enjoyed Liz’s exploration in the way you root for a character in a book. She’s a writer—raw and honest, an adventurer—having just returned from an epic Alaska road trip, she’s about to become a mother(!)—after years of yearning. Liz lives just north of us with her husband, dogs, and soon-to-be son. I think many of you will enjoy her Substack account. Here’s to enjoying new writers!
