Why should I subscribe to this random lady’s Substack?

Hi! I’m Liz McDaniel. I’m a writer and I live in Nashville, TN with my husband, our two daughters, and one crazy dog. I have published personal essays in Vogue and The New York Times, and I started this Substack to honor my best friend, Kate, who was my biggest cheerleader. I want it to feel like what we called our “Never Happier” moments. When you and your friends are gathered around the table, drinks and nibbles set before you, a full night of Tell me everything! goodness ahead.

So, why should you let me into your inbox at an as yet to be determined frequency? Or, even crazier, pay me for the privilege? Maybe because you’d rather read one thoughtful essay than twenty random social media posts. Maybe because you believe in the power of words and women telling the truth about their lives. Maybe because you want to know the latest books, food, and fashion I’m loving and tell me yours. Maybe you’re my mom.

Regardless, this is Never Happier and I’m glad you’re here.

xx,

Liz
