A Convict's Perspective

By Coleman

Criminal, Convict, Citizen and all points in between

Wisdom about life and living are necessary reminders to connect us to our humanity and revive something that can be lost through our consumption of news, doom and gloom. It's rare to come across a writer who is wise, humble and generous with his stories. Coleman's Convict's Perspective is a valuable reality check.

Holly’s Substack

By Holly MathNerd

a mix of anti-Woke cultural commentary, personal reflections, math lessons, and a regular creative writing feature

Holly possesses a rare combination of wisdom, assertiveness, truth-telling and humility. Her posts range from deep insights of her personal experiences, scathing commentary on Notes, math problem solving love, book reviews, and no nonsense takes about questionable behaviour, wokeism and Cluster B society. She also shares ideas about Substack's features and how to get the most out of our Substack use. A very generous and exciting writer.
