Celebrating 1500 Subscribers

Sharing + Showing Gratitude

Since I sent out this morning’s newsletter, I found out CollidePress.com has officially hit 1500 subscribers on Substack.

I couldn’t be more grateful to you—the motley crew of creatives, fans, and patrons who continue making this journey possible and so rewarding. THANK YOU!!!

My online creative “home” enables me to celebrate and share art, photos, posts, and videos about things that matter to me: including Creativity, History, and Masculinity.

Every time you open an email, leave a comment, share a post, or simply give a thumbs-up, you’re not just supporting me—you’re helping to build a community of like-minded individuals who color outside the lines too.

Now, as we set our sights on the next milestone (2000 subscribers, here we come!), I’m inviting you to help spread the word and grow our little corner of Substack. Here’s how:

• Share the Love: If you enjoy what I do, please consider sharing it! Tell a friend, post about Collide Press on social media, or forward a favorite post to someone who might enjoy it too.

• Leave a Comment: Your thoughts and feedback mean the world to me. Let me know what you’re enjoying, what you want more of, or just drop a quick note to say hi. (I really do read every single one…and try to respond to as many as I can.)

• Support the Work: From subscribing to grabbing an art print or t-shirt from the shop, every little bit helps keep the creativity flowing. And if you’re feeling extra generous, you’re welcome to support me directly on Ko-Fi.

• Connect with Me: Whether you’re here for the posts, the videos, or just to soak up some LGBTQ vibes, I’d love to hear from you. Let’s keep the conversation going—hit reply or find me on socials.

Thank you for being here, for being queer (forgive me if that word doth offend, dear), and for cheering me on. I feel like Collide Press is becoming so much more than just about me and my work. It’s becoming you about all of us.

Here’s to all the milestones yet to come and the connections we’ll make along the way.

Cheers to you, my fabulous crew of outside-the-liners—I couldn’t do this without you.

Wishing you much peace, love, health, and happiness…
