My Substack

I've left you all high and dry again, haven't I?!  I really don't mean to, I just get distracted by bright and shiny objects, and it's not right.  But, I've been doing a lot behind the scenes, and I've got my writing spark back, so I've been posting articles to my Substack account (you know how I like to experiment and view myself as an early adopter!):  https://substack.com/@phyllisofmcg

 

My Substack is geared towards helping crafters, especially crocheters and knitters, to utilize technology to get organized so that they can spend more of their time being creative!  I've been using ChatGPT and Airtable first to help me organize my yarn stash.  Now, I'm moving on to organizing the patterns I want to make and figuring out how to match my yarn stash to those patterns.  After that, we'll see where it goes, and I'd love to hear from you the direction(s) you'd like to see it go.  I hope you'll enjoy the articles (I'm trying to post twice a week) and subscribe!

A New Year, A New Approach Going Forward!

Hello Crocheters!  I'm sorry I "ghosted" on all of you, but my mama passed at the end of July, then my godmother in August.  Things just had to give, both before and after.  No regrets, but I do need to make amends with those of you who have supported me and Many Creative Gifts all these years!  After all, it's our 15th Anniversary this year!!

So, in this new, fresh year, I'm shifting my focus to connect with you all in different and hopefully more helpful crochet ways, and I hope you'll agree and continue to stick with me :-).  In addition to occasional blog posts, I want to make better use of other media to convey meaningful crafty information to you.

For the next 30 days, starting Wednesday, January 29th, I'll be livestreaming on my Facebook page (go straight there) with a different crochet tip or trick each day to help you refresh your crochet knowledge and hopefully experience something new and different!  All of the crochet tips, and way more, are in my ebook 101 Crochet Tips, available on Amazon (this is my affiliate link). 

For those of you who no longer utilize Facebook, I'll be figuring out other venues in which to post the videos, so check back here for more alternative links.

Happy 2020, Crocheters, it's going to be a great year!
