This is a bit harsh episode for Gretchen but she is growing up during the Napoleonic War and her father is a drunk, wounded veteran so… he sucks and her life is hard.
Anyways, I’ve been enjoying substack. I think it is a real good platform so far. I only wish they had a lower tier option for paid subscription, right now the lowest is $5. To supplement this I started a Patreon with tiers as low as $1 and $2.
Here is a link to it:
