On this Friday, before the Monday holidays in the Americas, I was very grateful to Bill Moore and Dr. Mary M. Marshall for their active participation today.

«UPDATED» In December 2025, Substack made its livestreaming features accessible to users on desktop browsers without either the fiddly bits of using mobile devices or complexity of a “stream key” (an API Key to use the RTMP protocol).

Since January 2025, Projectkin has hosted over 50 Substack Live sessions, including Weekly Updates, the RootsTech Ride Along series, and the Fall All About That Place (AATP) series featuring guests from the UK to Australia. For many of our guests, Substack is utterly new.

At Projectkin, we’re on a mission to make this sort of thing easier. Projectkin is all about encou...

I’m deeply grateful to the near twenty of you who were able to join me live during my live conversation with Cynthia Nims of Seafood Savvy and Long Live the Recipe Box. Without the means to grab your names as they floated by, I’m afraid I cannot thank you all directly. We both appreciated your participation, even as we struggled with the video hiccups.

Thankfully, the good people at Substack were able to share the full live stream video with me this morning, and after a few edits, you’ll find it updated above and easier...

Thank you so much for joining us today.

Coming MissionGenealogy Events with Bill Moore

I was thrilled to have Bill Moore of Family History with Bill Moore join me today. Until he mentioned it today, I’d not realized he’s only been on Substack for a few months and already he’s an active participant in both of my Substack publications, Projectkin Community Forum and Mission: Genealogy.

While Projectkin is all about inspiring you to Family History storytelling projects, Mission: Genealogy is our shared space to collaborate as family historians and genealogists and connect as peers. More about the publication here:

Welcome DearMYRTLE!

It was a special treat today to welcome DearMYRTLE as my very special guest on our weekly Live update. She shared details about her next Mondays with Myrt episode coming tomorrow at 9 AM PT/noon ET/ 5 PM BST. This week, she has Michelle Tucker Chubenko joining as her guest to explore the map of Galicia in the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

Though she usually follows the panelists of Mondays with Myrt with her bi-monthly book club, she’s skipping that this week in anticipation of a new publication to track. Hm… you know that if you...

Thank you to everyone who tuned in to my live video! It was lovely to see so many of you join us for today’s program: From my east here in California… Ann Larkham in the north of Scotland, Dr. Mary M.

Thank you Kathy Stone, Linda Teather, and really all of you for joining us in today. These sessions are always a fun way to stay connected as a community and look ahead to the coming week.

As you probably know, you can now use the Substack app 👇 for mobile devices to view and record your own Live sessions. For our family history community, I’ve also posted a recording about Getting Started with Live in our January program MissionGenealogy.org/office-hours.

I’ve discovered that by tracking the chat thread on my desktop browser while broadca...

Each Sunday when I do these Substack live programs, I’m always astonished at how fun they are. I hope they’re as entertaining for those watching from home (live or as a recording). As Bill Moore put it, the simple idea is to start the week with a little shared perspective about the week ahead.

Today, I was delighted to welcome my collaborator in Mission: Genealogy, Robin Stewart. Many of you will recognize Robin of course from her fabulous weekly newsletter for the genealogy community on Substack, “GenStack.” It’s released each Saturday with a compendium of interes...

Thank you Crystal Lorimor, Saphyre, Anne’s Family History, Bill Moore, and many others for tuning into my live video with Bill Moore and Jane Chapman! By focusing on One-Place Studies, we have a chance to get everyone focused on the potential for this extraordinary approach to family history storytelling. Today’s program is in anticipation of our workshop on Thursday, April 2nd, with Janet Barrie, chair of the Society for One-Place Studies.

It might have been difficult to follow along with links to the sites Bill and Jane referenced. To be sure you have ready access, plea...

What fun to welcome you all live in today’s program as Kathy Stone and I chat about the week ahead. Today, we focused on Kathy’s upcoming expansion on the Who-What-Where challenge and a few new features coming for Substack Live.

Kathy’s Corner: Who-What-When & Where of your Photos

This week, Thursday (or Friday for those of you in tomorrow-land across the date line), we’ll pick up where we left off in last month’s Kathy’s Corner discussion of the clues we can find in the photos left behind by our ancestors.

In our...

These live sessions with all of you chiming in create a wonderful way to plan for the week ahead. Today, we focused on two programs ahead this week:

Forget Me Not: How We Memorialise | Ailsa Piper

In the last of Jane Hutcheon’s six-part Forget-Me-Not series, Jane interviews Ailsa Piper. Ailsa is a well-known actor, director, audiobook narrator, and writer in Australia. After her husband died suddenly, Ailsa focused on the art of moving forward. Her latest book, "For Life," is a moving exploration of loss, hope, and starting again.

One thing to note… the recording starts abruptly. That’s a tad awkward...

Well, now, THAT was fun. A hearty debt of thanks to the dozen or so of you who were able to join us for our very first WEEKLY Projectkin Substack LIVE program.

The idea here is to have a simple broadcast out there you can choose to preview if you’d like with what’s coming each week. Like many of the features here in Substack, I’ve discovered that I can’t figure them out by reading about them, I have to just play with them. So far, (and with your kind support) it’s been working ou...

You may already know that Emma Cox is an extraordinary genealogist. You may not know what an adventurer she is—always willing to try the next shiny new toy. Emma - Journeys into Genealogy was gracious enough today to experiment with me with this new live program to highlight her upcoming Emma Explores program on Thursday, November 21st.

In today’s program, you’ll hear about
