Happy New Year!

Okay, here’s the deal. It’s a new year, so I’m going to try something new.

When I started this Substack, my intent was to use it as a forum to share unconventional perspectives and engage in interesting conversations. Although I thoroughly enjoyed writing my initial pieces here, they were fairly formal essays, and a couple of them took me a long time to draft and edit. It was all too slow.

I’m not a full-time professional writer, and it was never my desire to use this platform solely for the publication of highly refined posts. The project became more daunting than it needed to be, and I became less inclined to write here.

I’m honored that so many of you stuck around despite my absence over the past several months, and going forward I’m committed to doing things differently. While I still plan to publish many polished pieces, your expectation should be that most posts here will be short, casual notes or thoughts.

My hope with this change is to bring you more regular content, and more of what you’re likely here for anyway. In any case, this is closer to what I imagined doing when this Substack adventure began. Thanks again for being a subscriber.
