I’m with mr Brisick, your newsletter gives me fuel for the week so I don’t need to get involved with social media, which is anything but.. that’s great the link for the sweaty ceilings book, I must be of a certain age as there’s plenty of art books appearing now that cater to my tastes, what with the RAD book (well done Dan and stop being humble that’s a fantastic book), the Dragon Bar book, which was my local before it was burnt down in the name of progress, and I even found a photo book on a pre Olympic Hackney Wick. Interestingly we just had Kelly Slater over here in Hossegor which reminded me to read that brilliant Beach Grit article you linked. Scorching article, accurate yet made me feel a bit sad for Kelly. Proving the point of good writing is to be emotive I guess. Good times.
I am really interested in learning more about it, but I think I just got lazy and listened to tons of podcasts about it instead, maybe I should try an audiobook version of it, if one exists.

Same here, there's always something to get me thinking (as evidences by my minor essay comment last week). Thanks Matt
Same to you mate, keep the long comments coming!
Hey thanks Steve, much appreciated and the type of comment to keep me at this 💪
"(and is also responsible for a LOT of unfinished readings of The Rise and Fall of The Third Reich, judging by the messages I still get about this)"
Yep, I am also one of those unfinished readers! 📖🤦🏻♂️🙂
I’ve read it twice 😂 (not sure what that says about me)

I actually just loved his writing style, and found it a really pleasurable reading experience
