Letters from the first and the 15th

The first and the 15th is a biweekly newsletter (seriously, you only receive it on the first and the 15th of each month) where I share my worldview as a human writer in a world where writing is increasingly being underappreciated.

I explore the concept of using writing, reading, and books as a way to share ideas and start meaningful conversations. And just for the fun of it, I may include a book recommendation so you can add it to the growing stack of books you buy but never actually read. Yes, you.

I respect your privacy. No one will ever know. Trust me, I’m a ghostwriter.

Thank you!

See you on the first or the 15th.

Look beyond your bread and circuses
Look beyond your bread and circuses

Collectively, we can ease our pain if - and only if - we look beyond our bread (personal gain) and circuses (personal source of entertainment) and start living from a place of empathy and love towards others.
