Today, with delay, I'm celebrating my publication's fifth anniversary, which took place July 2, 2024, and got me to 262 weekly sketches and mini-essays published over five years.1
Frank Harmon’s Native Places blog is one of my greatest inspirations for this project. The formula is simple: pair a sketch with a mini-essay, share it online, and repeat.
I send this newsletter once a week, but I sketch and write every single day.
I’m figuring it out. But I enjoy every bit of it and will continue writing, drawing, and publishing for years. (I encourage you to discover the power of writing: start with one word per day.)
I'd love to hear your thoughts, feedback, comments, and suggestions and invite you to write a comment, reply, send me a voice note, or send me a private message.
Thank you, as always, for pushing me to keep going.
Happy newsletterversary.
262 weeks and 1826 days between July 2, 2024, and my first sketch and mini-essay on July 2, 2019. ↩
