Very excited to see what’s brewing… I love the idea of a focus on mindfulness. Bring it on, it will be much needed! Happy Birthday Hobbes🌈 Hope all our loves are hanging out together and chasing their bouncing balls of light… hoping everyone here is chasing their bouncing balls of light into 2025✨ Big love xo
Thank you for all that you are. You really do bring light to this world & this space is more than worth $5. I am excited for 2025 with the light chasers.
Happy Birthday Hobbes! Hope doggy heaven is everything you wish it to be!
Tyler—I think any way we get to interact with you more is magical! I agree it’s worth way more than $5. I’m excited to see how the live sessions shape up! And I love the prompts even if I don’t comment, my mind is always sparked and stimulated. Thank you for everything and happy new year!🎆
Happy puppy day to Hobbes! And your haiku today took the air from my space. That’s some sort of magic going on! I came upon your page on Substack in a random way, but have become a regular admirer and contributor for two reasons. First, your ability to motivate me to write verse, even if my pencil is not able to stay between the lines of direction you give to us. I have always been just one step short of writing prose and verse that satisfied me. You have shown me that approvals are for the inside of pockets in clothing, not for writing. Second, you have cultivated a community of creative and empathetic followers, who do not critique each other as much as encourage. I am encouraged to look forward to spending time with them each Tuesday and Sunday mornings in 2025.
Kevin, the fact that your pencil deviates from the lines is the highest praise I can ask for, and the truest aim of all I create. I've never once stayed inside the lines, and so watching others do the same with their own creativity, is such a gift. I love this group, love how we love one another, love how we show up. You're a fundamental part. Know that.
Happy happy Birthday Miss Hobbs! Truly a gift to us all! Ty, she watches over you every day just like she did when she was here …… this will be a great year, I feel it!!!!
Happy Birthday Hobbes! Thank you for sharing Hobbes with us and his sweet photo. My sweet pup Mitra died in August of this year and I still cry every time I look at her photos (all over my house). I love a focus on mindfulness. I work full time and have a very full life, so I especially appreciate your haiku practice. Since I have to work FT to support myself, I don't have much energy for creativity. But haiku makes me feel like maybe I possibly could, since it's just a short little lightning bolt of inspired writing. Thanks for all you do.
So sorry for the loss of your sweet Mitra, Jen! I lost my girl last September and I still cry, take all the time you need to mourn in the ways you need to. Wishing you comfort in these hard times ❤️.
Sending so much love to all of the pups that have shaped us and saved us in more ways than we can count. Wishing the humans who've outlived these special companions peace as we mourn their loss and honor their lives as we continue on our paths until we meet them again.
May 2025 be full of wonder and hope. Very excited to see the Signal Fire changes unfold and continue connecting with this amazing community. Wishing everyone a happy and safe holiday season full of what brings you joy!
I bought Miracle in the Mundane the week it came out. I think I wasn’t quite prepared for the “work” it asked of me so it got added to the too large tbr pile and I figured I’d get to it at some point. (I can’t believe I let it sit there for 5 years). This is my inspiration to pick it up in the new year. The last half of 2024 was hard. Way harder than I thought it would be. Too many changes forced upon me. I’m trying to learn to be okay. I need to work on how much I don’t like myself so maybe this will help me along.
As for the Signal Fire, I love it. I was going to fill out the google survey but I’m not creative enough to come up with any ideas for what I would like to see. I’m happy to read whatever you feel like saying every week. I like the idea of the kindling even if I rarely participate. I am excited to see the shape it will take in 2025. If I wasn’t already a paid subscriber, the only thing I can come up with that would make me pay would be the poetry. I found you on instagram way back when and fell in love with your words. I don’t even particularly like poetry so that’s saying something. I hate what instagram has become so I never use it anymore although apparently you aren’t posting it there anymore so it doesn’t matter anyway. I was glad when the poetry started popping up on here more. I thought the idea of the matchbook was good, but I think it’s better with less frequency. I will never run out of entertainment I want to consume, so having it weekly made me pay less attention to it. I love the positivity you and Lady G put into the world and my eyeballs are looking forward to continuing to consume it. $5 a month is very much worth it for me.
Happy 2025 to this wonderful Signal Fire community. Looking forward to spending more time with you all in the new year.
Honestly, totally, completely, fair. If you need ANYTHING on your journey, let me know! I'm in to help. And I completely agree on how hard 2024 was, financially, and all the other "ly"s. You being here means the world, and I hope you know that. Thank you, for you.

Absolutely love the idea of our loves chasing bouncing balls of light and doing that for ourselves!
I'm so happy you're here, and I'm so happy so many of us are chasing that light together. What a gift.
Thank you for all that you are. You really do bring light to this world & this space is more than worth $5. I am excited for 2025 with the light chasers.
Happy Birthday, Hobbes. 🖤
Just sayin'
2025 is Year of the Snake (January 29 onwards) ❤️🤍🖤✨️
I hope your holidays are filled with things that fill your cup & make your magical hearts so very happy 💜💜
🐍🐍🐍
I wish you the same beautiful holiday energy. 🖤
Snake energy is good energy.
You're so fantastic. Thank you for you. Cannot wait for all 2025 will bring, all we'll stand together against.
So much this. 👏

I'm so excited for the live sessions and excited to see what people want them to morph into!

I hope so! Here's to a brand new start.
Happy birthday Hobbs. I'm so ready for live events with you beautiful people. ❤️
Ditto! Excited to figure out the best way to do them!
Happy 19th, Hobbes!
Thank you for bringing such joy to such an exceptional human.
TKG, you now have a captive audience should you ever want to do anything related to a Who rewatch.
I love that 2025 is sparkling with promise & possibilities. We're so lucky that you & Lady G. have woven such a nook of warmth for us.
Thank YOU! We're just as lucky. Hope ya know ;)

Thank u!!
Oof, I am so sorry for Mitra. :( I cry too, every time. I think the minor changes will bring about big shifts, and I'm excited for them!
Happiest of pupdays to sweet Hobbes! ❤️

Wishing you all the same. We are lucky to have people like you in this magic community!
So grateful to be part of this community! Here's to a beautiful new year together. And I love the idea of live chats! :)
SO grateful you're here! We have a lot of fun coming, and I am psyched for it.

Our sweet dog Lily left us a month ago, after 14 years with us. I don’t think I’ll ever get over it. Thanks for reminding me I’m not alone.
And that haiku …! ❤️
I am so truly sorry, my goodness, I know this ache so acutely. All my love sent to you and yours.
