Drafting

About the Substack

Somewhere between crafting and drifting is Drafting. Here you'll find reflections on pop culture and life's in-betweens from a gal (30-year-old woman) on a creative pursuit. Often candid, sometimes satirical, and always a bit of fun.

About Mary Upton

Curious storyteller. Avid reader. Disliker of writing bios. I write Drafting, a Substack on pop culture, life's in-betweens and the pursuit of creativity. Itโ€™s pretty funny, too. My fiction writing has received an honorary mention in Writer's Digest.
