1,759,511 and Still Becoming

On September 23, 2025, Glow reached one million views. I remember looking at that number and wondering what could possibly come after a million. Less than a year later, I have my answer. 759,511 more visits. Not another beginning. Not an ending either. Still becoming. Glow has reached 1,759,511 all-time views. Our last milestone was 1.5 million . Since then, another 259,511 views have quietly found their way here. That number still feels a little unreal to me. Not because I think of Glow as small anymore, but because I still remember what it feels like to sit down and write one piece at a time. One thought. One photograph. One painting. One ordinary afternoon turned into something worth keeping. And then, somewhere beyond my screen, someone reads it. Then someone else does. And somehow, over time, those tiny moments become 1,759,511 . The painting behind this milestone is called Still Becoming . I painted it long before deciding it would become part of Glow’s milestone s...

106,299 Reasons to Keep Creating

August ended with 106,299 views on Glow. Six figures. There is something a little surreal about typing that number, especially when I think about what a view actually represents. Somewhere, someone opened a page. Maybe she came looking for an answer. Maybe a photograph caught her eye. Maybe she was curious about something I bought, wore, tried, made, or thought about. Maybe she read one piece and wandered into another. And somehow, all those small moments added up to 106,299 . What makes August even more special to me is seeing just how far Glow traveled. To everyone reading from the United States, Norway, Seychelles, Brazil, Germany, Singapore, India, Vietnam, France, and Pakistan , thank you. These were Glow’s ten biggest countries for the month, and seeing places thousands of kilometers apart gathered together on one little analytics page never stops feeling remarkable. And to everyone reading from everywhere else, including my quiet readers here in the Philippines, thank yo...

From the Editor’s Desk: A New Era for Glow by Lady E

  Dear Glow Girls,  T he past few days have been different. You felt it. The shift. The pattern. The way everything started to connect. None of this was accidental. Every post, every piece, every image… was placed exactly where it needed to be. I didn’t arrive here overnight. This shift has been building for a long time. I’ve been dreaming about this for years.  I’ve been planning this for a long time, but it didn't move… Until it did.   And when it finally came… I knew I couldn’t write the same way anymore. You felt the shift in my writing.  I’ve been here since 2007.  After a 10-year hiatus to raise my son, I came back.  I saw that some of you were still here.  And that ignited a spark.  I didn’t know if you would still listen to me. But I wrote again.  One post. Then another. And another.  And you did. You still are.  And in September 2025, almost 500,000 of you were here.  In less than a year, over a million reade...
