Peachy Keen with Tara Wine-Queen: The Relaunch
Your favorite peach dish is back with some tweaks to the recipe
Hello again, friends! I hope you’re doing well wherever you may be (or as well as possible given *gestures broadly*). I’m super excited to announce that Peachy Keen is coming back to regularly bless your inbox/feed with a few changes.
YAY HAPPINESS JOY CELEBRATION ELATION AND ALL OTHER APPLICABLE SYNONYMS
I had returned to in-person work, which naturally took up a lot of my time and energy, but I’m officially finished with that, and all my work is now able to be done from home, meaning I have more time for this and other creative endeavors.
YAY HAPPINESS JOY CELEBRATION ELATION AND ALL OTHER APPLICABLE SYNONYMS YET AGAIN
To come back properly to Peachy Keen, though, there were a few changes I felt needed to be implemented.
I’d always wanted to be able to pay people who were featured but couldn’t afford to. I still can’t pay as I wish I could, but I’m figuring some things out that I hope can help cover a modest honorarium of $25 for those featured. Featured individuals can receive $25 through Venmo, PayPal, or CashApp, or they can opt to be “paid” in the form of a future ad in Peachy Keen or a link/post shared on my social media accounts. Maybe you have a book coming out in two months, for example, and believe having the link shared on release day would be more beneficial to you than $25 today. I know it’s not a perfect system, but I’m trying not to let the perfect get in the way of the good in many aspects of life, and this is but one of them.
Secondly, I’ll be sharing Peachy Keen posts on Ko-Fi, as well, so people who are not on Substack can find their joy elsewhere. The curious can find that here: https://ko-fi.com/tarawinequeen
Lastly, I’ve changed the questions I ask a bit. I got so much delight from the whimsy-posting a few months back, and I wanted to incorporate that into this as they go perfectly hand-in-hand.
Regarding that, some of you had filled out the initial questionnaire and hadn’t had the chance to be featured yet. If you count yourself among those and you would still like to be considered for featuring, please send an email to my gloriously empty new email account specifically for all things Peachy Keen, peachykeentwq@gmail.com. You can also send me any other questions you might have there as, again, it is gloriously unburdened by emails at this time.
I hope you have a beautiful day!
<3
