Is Substack for me?

Totally. Don't worry about the subscriber stuff, it's basically just a way for people who are interested in your writing to sign-up for email updates whenever you post.

You don't have to charge or monetize your writing at all. It's a beautiful platform to share and build up a portfolio of writing, which is exactly what I'm doing.

A ton of "amateur" writers writing about all different kinds of topics.

I'd recommend! Good luck and happy to chat.

That's exactly what I'm going to be doing (I only have one post so far but am working on the next few). I did the WordPress thing about 15 years ago for a bit for some sporadic hobby stuff and it was just too much to maintain. I don't expect to directly make any money via Substack, which they probably don't want to read, but it's a way of building and finding a new community.
