There are many, many more worthy GFMs and causes out there and please go donate to them instead! But after posting about very much wishing I could go to this beautiful place to study with two of my favourite Scottish writers, a number of my lovely friends asked me to set this up (or yelled at me to, Elizabeth).

I spoke to Moniack Mhor, and Doug and I sat down and worked stuff out and we can manage it with a bit of help.

I would normally never ask for something so 'frivolous', but the responses from my friends made me feel like I was being held and loved. Right now, I think leaning into community is the only way to keep going. I promise to pay anything forward as soon as I'm able. But please! If you know of people in need, donate to them first ❤️
