Thank you so much for having me, Evelyn! I'd love to have you cohost a session with me, maybe we could make it a writing prompt + drawing hybrid hour. Doesn't that sound delightful?!

Hi Beth, was soooo nice learning more about you. Whenever someone asked me about a pub that's different and embraces the YOU factor, I recommend checking out yours.

There are so many introverts out there who don't know where to start. I think your pub is the best starting point to see that you can do things quietly but still loud enough to build a community ❤️

Evelyn, what you are doing here is really working!

Thanks to today's wonderful interview with Beth, I was encouraged to start telling my little stories about life in Portugal using my own illustrations. I've been doing these sketches off and on, but it wasn't until this interview that something clicked and I decided to try putting them up on Substack.

Thank you thank you thank you!

If you're curious, this is what happened as a result of being creative, inspired & happy this morning ☺️ https://portugueseinterlude.substack.com/p/a-drive-by-sweeping

Btw, I also became a paid subscriber to Beth's page ~ between her personality and that wonderful name, Introvert Drawing Club, who could resist?!

Welcome, Kristin! I love your work! The illustration in the link you posted is gorgeous. I love the colors and clever composition.

Thank you so much for your support. I'll reach out tomorrow to see if you have any questions or feedback. I look forward to drawing with you soon!

Thanks Beth! And thank you for something else, too. I had somehow arrived at a point where I was scared to pick up the pens and draw something new, fearing it wouldn't be what I wanted it to be. Your chat with Evelyn somehow got me past that and happily drawing again, so thank you for that, as well!

Kristin! Your painting is amazing! I love how you included the side mirror of your car. Your style and the bright colors are so whimsical and happy.

I’m so glad the interview with Beth came at the right moment and inspired you. Also really happy that you subscribed to Introvert Drawing Club—you’re gonna love it!

Thank you, Evelyn ~

I've done a lot of street photography over the years, but they can be a bit touchy about that here, so I switched to drawing. The fact that I'm not good at drawing people's faces protects people's privacy – and me! 😊

Woke up this morning and as I was meditating I thought that if I was to get a mentor I'd like a mentor like Evelyn because she always has that warm smiley face. Then I forgot all about it and got on with my day until I listened to the story you shared about the super market lady and I'm sensing strong synchronicity vibe then and there! That was powerful and perhaps a sign!

Wowowoe. Live your podcast. Also I love that the video quality is so good. Do you use Riverside?

I'm also thinking about starting a pod. I have interviews on YT but want to leverage this.

Wonderful what you built here, do and that you're so smart as to start this pod and hyping yourself here.

👋 Kristina
