I'm deeply touched by the personal call-out—thank you—but, of course, you over-credit me. I am but a tiny piece of Substack, which is a collective effort from a team of people who care deeply about helping writers and media makers of all sorts.

That aside, this is an incredibly gratifying piece to read, and I personally am very excited to hear that you're betting on yourself as a writer. You will succeed tremendously. Also, I'd be happy to add a letter of recommendation into the mix for your visa application, if that would be helpful.

Best of luck.

What makes you think you need an editor for your substack posts? The stuff you write is more delightfully readable than almost anyone else I read regularly. It is so naturally charming and all the more remarkable given that English is not your first language. I love your writing style and would worry that an editor would take away more than they would add to it.
