Hi, I’m Keris
It’s quite likely that you found me via photos of my cat, Noodles, on Substack Notes.
Noodles doesn’t have much to say about money, midlife or mortality, but she welcomes you anyway.
Now back to me!
Good Fortune started in 2021 as The Ladybird Purse, a space for me to talk openly and honestly about money. You can read more about that here.
In May 2026, inspired by my 55th birthday, it became Good Fortune, to give me a space to write about more than just money. You can read more about that here.
I still write about money - how could I not? It colours everything - but I also want to write about
What do subscribers get?
A weekly money interview with an interesting woman. This always has been and always will be free.
For paid subscribers, there’s a second weekly post that may feature a follow up on a previous interviewee or an update from me.
A monthly subscription costs £5 and an annual subscription is £50 (a bargain!). Or, if you’d like a chat with me (about anything at all, but money seems the most likely subject) you can become a Gold Member (I am sorry) for £100.
Thanks so much for reading.

When Keris says she is honest about money (or the lack of it), she means it. This blog combines brutal honesty with humor and love. I am enjoying Keris's journey and would argue that some of us need this type of discourse to break the money cycles that don't serve us.

Keris has OPENED my eyes about the female relationship with money. I'm often nodding along or winching at the honest shares and can't wait to keep reading and healing my relationship with money as a creative.
