Some of you might have noticed.
Unfortunately my Substack Notes have been suspended.
It stings.
Because I have no idea why.
But it’s not holding me back from going on.
According to them, something I posted (or maybe something I didn't post?) went against their rules.
I'm still a little unclear on the specifics.
I'm working with Substack's support team to understand what happened.
Hopefully we can get things sorted out.
In the meantime, my Notes are on hold.
And I can't post any new content or respond to your comments and messages there.
This brings me to the following:
Thank You.
Over the past few days, interacting with you all on Notes has been one of the most rewarding parts of this whole writing journey.
Your questions, comments, and even disagreements have sparked so many interesting conversations.
And they’ve helped me see things from fresh perspectives.
It's been amazing getting to know you better.
And I truly appreciate the community we've built here.
Speaking of getting to know you better...
I also want to apologize for the unanswered messages.
I've seen a few of you reaching out with comments, questions and thoughts on recent Notes.
And it absolutely kills me that I haven't been able to respond.
I haven't forgotten about you.
As soon as I get back up and running on Notes, I promise you'll be the first to know.
And I'll be diving headfirst into that backlog of messages.
So, what now?
First off, I'm hopeful that I'll be back on Notes soon.
In the meantime, there are still a few ways to stay connected:
I'll keep sharing my longer-form content here on Substack. And of course, you're always welcome to leave comments here.
And I'm still active on Medium as well.
Please don't give up on me and if you can, help me show Substack the value of my content by liking, commenting and sharing this post.
I'm passionate about this community. So this setback won't stop me from sharing my thoughts and connecting with you all.
Thanks again for your understanding and support.

P.S. Is there anything specific you'd like to discuss once I'm back on Notes? Leave a comment below, and I'll make sure it's the first thing I address!
Not telling you what you did wrong is wrong. If your kid is watching TV and you walk up and smack em, hard, and they start screaming, Whad'd I do?! Whad'd I do?! and you won't tell them, you're an idiot.
You must identify the wrong action if you want to illustrate that it's wrong in order to teach them.
"It's been amazimg getting to know you better."
