Got a reply to my new mail-merge effort to 98 subscribers. What nice news:

“I wanted to tell you that I entered a ghost story competition, and my piece was shortlisted. They want to publish it in their upcoming ghost story anthology. I will get a free copy. It blew me away. I wanted to tell you because you have been a huge part of my learning journey, so thank you for that Becca,”
