What Brandon Sanderson Does Is Incredible
So I want to talk about Brandon Sanderson for second. Sanderson, if you weren’t aware, is a prolific fantasy author. Last week, he did something pretty extraordinary. He created a Kickstarter for a new series of books, which quickly became the single most funded crowdfunding event on the site, ever. He scored something like $17 million in the first day. (it's now at $34 million. At one point, I was watching the number go up like a freaking stock ticker.)

Marlow - in a pub 1,835 miles from Kharkiv
The Times 28th February 2022 The front-page feature picture is chilling. A burning Russian military vehicle, an immobilized one in the background and in the foreground the bodies of soldiers lying face down on the unforgiving and cold surface of a road in Kharkiv, Ukraine’s second city. This front page image brought the war on to the table where I was having my lunch in an English pub in Marlow 1,835 miles from where it was taken over the weekend.

Social Media Marketing For Your Business
Social media marketing enables businesses to engage with existing customers and reach new ones by building relationships and taking advantage of the unique features inherent to these channels, such as a real-time and interactive nature. Search engine marketing (SEM) is a subset of social media marketing that helps companies get noticed by the right audience, drive traffic, and increase sales and leads. Social media marketing (SMM) is an important tool for businesses, since it allows companies to communicate with customers, build a community of brand ambassadors, and boost online sales.

Marlow - in the steps of Daniel Defoe
New York Times 23rd February 2022 It has been quite a while since I bought a copy of this august international paper. For some reason the newsagents dotted about Ringwood where I live in the New Forest region of England do not deem it worthwhile stocking next to the indigenous national dailies. Isolationism and exceptionalism? Whatever the reason I have not seen one available since we officially left the EU. Today’s purchase was a luxury I enjoyed over a full English breakfast at the Strawberry Grove restaurant in Marlow.

The Richest Man Ever
He was much too young! I was thinking As Peter my ex-boyfriend was telling me about our mutual friend Thom. He had a massive heart attack the last he had heard; he was just getting around to feeling normal. Thom and I were good friends before Peter, and I had broken up and I moved out of the house we all shared.

To make it as an artist you have to be an entrepreneur
Nishant Jain is the author of SneakyArt, a newsletter in which he secretly draws the world and shares all of his thoughts about it. He also happens to be part of Substack's fellowship program with me where we've been engaging in long discourses about art and how we can make a living doing it.
