By Jen Deaderick| Substack@ I spent a crazy amount of money on skin care products yesterday. Like, a bonkers amount. It’s stuff that will last a while, so I can break it down into monthly amounts in my head and feel sort of like it was sane, but really it wasn’t. I was far too vulnerable to a young, hard-selling woman who told me I deserved to look beautiful and gently rubbed things into my face. It’s fine, really. Last night, though, I started crying thinking about how needy I was lately for that sort of caring. How raw I am.
By Jen Deaderick| Substack@ It was my birthday last week. Fifty-three! I keep forgetting I’m in my fifties. I turned fifty during the lockdown. I had a party. People wore masks and sat in my yard at a distance. It was actually really fun. Still, it didn’t feel real because of the strange liminal nature of the lockdown. It happened in a parallel time. Or maybe it’s just weird to be getting older. In my forties, I could always feel like I was just out of my thirties, but now there’s a numerical gap of a whole decade.
By Jen Deaderick| Substack@ Well, I’ve decided against going all-paid, after considering it for a bit. I really love having this be open for anyone to read, with people having the option to pay if they can. I get really tired of having to monetize everything. It’s the only way to make even close to a living as a writer, but it isn’t fun. Asking for money is sort of embarrassing. I’ve had people tell me to “get a job” in reaction to my public requests, as if writing isn’t a job.
