is it weird that i've never, not once, wondered about the consistency or lack thereof? maybe for me, the not knowing, keeps it fun.

who knows.

but i'm always happy when I see it in my inbox.

keep up the good work.

Consistency is nice, however for creative souls, they work and write in bits of pieces- a little of this and some of that in order to capture the chaos of information within their mind. I appreciate the creative process much more than the structured consistency of word salad. Your articles/work is fabulous- entertaining and to the point. Thank you. x

Jessica, I just want to offer some encouragement and let you know that you are totally fine. I think there is a large group of us who think similarly to you, and who support your artistic journalism and aren’t watching the clock or checking the calendar wondering when content is coming.

I’m busy all the time, so when I open my email and see a deliciously raunchy update (the sex party article for example), I get so excited and can’t wait to sink my teeth into it. I then usually read it several times and pour over the comments and enjoy the community aspect as well.

You are doing a great job. You are doing enough. Please don’t feel pressured to promise a ton of content that will likely overwhelm you and dare I say, may overwhelm us, your community. I’m happy with what you’re providing thus far. To expect or demand more wouldn’t be supportive!

Your pieces are always worth the wait! Anytime I get an email notification I’m like ohhhhh shit it’s here! The suspense is most definitely worth it! Quality over quantity always!

Consistency is overrated. What matters is content and the work it takes to get to the truth. I can’t imagine juggling all the sources and fact-checking. I’m a new subscriber and a huge fan. Keep up the amazing work and post it when you’re ready!

I thrive on consistency and haven’t felt that here (yet) but that’s been part of the fun. I feel excited and thrilled when I get a notification of something new. The Depp trial, England trip, Maxwell sentencing all in quick succession not to mention the day to day and raising four boys I wasn’t sure there was going to be regularity. Being here makes me feel like I’m a child again, curled up in the corner of my grandma’s living room with my treasured books and magazines taking in all the latest. It feels like home and I’m grateful to be here.

I am consistently inconsistent, so you won’t have me begging for you to change! Personally, I love that we never know when a newsletter will arrive in our inbox. It’s like a SURPRISE that makes my day every time it arrives. Comparable to a fun coffee chat with a girlfriend. They are always that good! My advice, stay you. Don’t change. You do you 🤷🏼‍♀️ Ps- that’s why we are all here. Because we love the authentic you.

I don’t care for consistency…. I see the subscription as having a weekly,biweekly, monthly…whenever, conversations with a good friend…. and I don’t do the talking, thankfully ! Don’t change✌🏼🙂

I feel you’re like the best friend who is a little unreliable for coffee dates etc but when you finally show up you have the ALL the good sh#t

And that’s why I love my flakey best friend and also you and your newsletters!!

So thankful I found you during Maxwell trial, I’ve been hooked ever since. I live daily for your stories. Always with the facts and juiciest of information.

Keep doing you Jessica, we’re sticking around!!

I have never even thought about consistency when it comes to your publications. I’ll continue to read whatever you publish, no matter if it’s a scheduled or impromptu piece. We all do our best to adhere to some form of routine, but often times, life gets in the way. You are a fantastic, informative, & modern journalist! Keep on keeping on! ❤️ 👏

I do not mine at all that you’re not as consistent since I follow you on insta, I see that beautiful family of yours that you have!!! I appreciate you taking time away from all your boys to give us GOOD SH*T TO READ AND THINK ABOUT! I’ll forever be patient for your newsletters 😂

I'm in agreement here as to "consistency"...I don't care so much about knowing what day the newsletter is coming every single week, I almost prefer to just have it pop in when its meant to pop in...that being said I DO confess to constantly seeking out your stories first and foremost anytime I get onto either of my Insta accounts LOL...knowing that there is always that makes me not so focused or concerned about WHEN WHEN WHEN I will see your newsletter (even tho sometimes your amazing coverage on Insta makes me want more in depth deets right now!!! ha!). I think its pretty much safe to say everyone here is well aware that you are working harder than ever on the daily to create amazing, entertaining, behind the scenes, never before seen, original content fromn secret sources that would make all of us squeeal in amazement!!! I love the haphazardness of your efficiency girl!!! so glad I tuned into you more than a year ago and have been able to watch this wild ride you're on....thank you !!!!! xo m

Love being along for the ride of you finding your stride. Loving the updated format and weekly/monthly plan for producing. You are truly flourishing as a momma wrangler or boys, journalistic and salacious gossip, rockstar queen. Bravo.

Now hot damn, I can’t wait for the cara deep dive. I have been trying to find some juice on this truly bizarre character.

You ARE consistent, with your fun and smart and sassy delivery. Timing less important when the information is this amazing. Love everything you share. Best $7/month I’m spending currently.
