July dates for your diary
bringing creative fun to your month!
Hello!
I’m excited for a fun, creative month with you all! Below are all the dates for your calendar!
Some exciting news to hopefully brighten your summer! In case you haven’t already seen, I’ve launched a daily drawing challenge I’m calling gatherfiltermake100. The challenge is to draw every day for 100 days. You can join in for free, and if you want, I’ll be doing some deep-dive bonus content posts for paid subscribers. Read all about it here and here.
Check out my calendar post for details about each meet-up.

All the links are below, for paid subscribers
To celebrate the start of gatherfiltermake100, I’m offering 50% off paid subscriptions - just use the button below to get the discount. It’s only open to new subscribers, I’m afraid, but if you’ve been with me for a while, you’re most likely on a good rate. I’ve put my prices up recently to help with running costs. Also, to note, if you’re reading this on an Apple device, they add a hefty percentage if you upgrade directly from them, so if you open Substack on your phone or desktop (not the app) you can join without the additional cost. Let me know if you have any probs with this. And if you want to upgrade, but don’t have the funds, let me know and I can sort you out with a free sub.
