Inkspread
This is Inkspread, a newsletter about life in general. I’m a true Gen Xer (more on this in the next post), and I have a bunch of stuff already scribbled in ink that I intend to type in here. I’d also like to get into the habit of putting my personal essays here in one place. (They’ve mostly been in stacks of legal pads, but also on FB and reddit (both of which I’ve drifted away from).
I talk about my own experiences, but also politics, economics, law, literature etc. I’m a generalist, or a dilettante, or a jack-of-all-trade-master-of-none, or whatever. Take your pick.
If history is a guide, I’ll abandon it after a few posts, but I have hope. We’ll see.
Substack is designed to elicit paid subscriptions, but I expect to get zero dollars from it. If for some reason thousands of people each pay $1, I’ll go against everything I believe and put it into the cryptocurrency Ponzi scheme. It’ll be my retirement plan (more on this later also).
