The ordering process was smooth. Thank you, Jessica! I hope your Substack remains active. I enjoy hearing your perspective on the silliness and the horrors.
Congratulations on finishing the book. As a former graphic designer I well-know the effort that went into it. As a writer on climate change, overshoot and every other collapse related issue, I also understand the countless hours of reading and research.
I hope the last chapter has details on "duck and cover." Fortunately, any old table or desk will do.
No doubt. Glad you're the graphic designer now, I don't miss it, although it still comes in handy occasionally. I keep my software on an old computer bought outright, not this rental/tracking model BS!
If you’re ever in the mood, I’ve been looking for a self sufficiency guide to open pollinated seeds. Something easy for dummies like me. “Pick one from this list, one from this list, etc.” to prevent accidental hybridization which could really jack up your seed stock (as seeds from hybrid plants are often sterile).
Most guides seem to assume hybridization is fine, even desirable, because they have the underlying assumption that you can always acquire a pure, heriloom seed stock from a catalogue. In the situations we’re planning for, that won’t be the case, so doing what you can to avoid hybridization is essential.
You might have the right combination of plant knowledge and collapse awareness to pull it off.
Again, great work. Not trying to sound ungrateful or demanding. Appreciate you.

Good to hear! Yep, I'm in it for the long haul.
Thank you for putting in the work!
Jessica, this is an astonishing accomplishment! I’ve been following along and thinking what medical tips I might add.
Pm me if you wish.
Congratulations!
I definitely will!

Thanks! It's nice to have a solid first version!

Thank you! Greatly appreciated!
This is incredibly inspiring and empowering. I'm so impressed with and grateful for this project. Proud to support both of your newsletters!
Great stuff, congrats!

Hope we don't need it, but Thanks!
