In honor of this Week’s Islanders Write event, I wanted to celebrate some of the Martha’s Vineyard-based writers who are on this platform. Writing on a weekly cadence is a unique challenge, and I’ve enjoyed learning from and getting to know other local writers who are on this journey.
If you know of, or are an MV-Focused or MV-Based Substack Author yourself, please reach out to me so you can be added to this list! I’d love to learn from you :)

Hi Lis, thank you so much for the shout out to Cook the Vineyard. Yay! I've subscribed to MVacay from Cook as well. I also have my own (obviously Vineyard-based!) personal Substack, SIxburnersue, if you would like to add that! Thanks again, Susie
Ditto what Emily said. Thanks Lis. I love your work!
