My Substack Summer
What I read in Summer 2024
I was working on a post, but it was getting a bit long and exhausting to write at this hour. And Substack created this “My Substack Summer” report and suggested that I post it. So I’m sharing this report in order to get a post in for this week, and I’m filing the other post for a later week. (Which won’t be next week, as I’ll have something else to write about then…). If you don’t have a Substack account yet and you like reading thoughtful essays, I highly recommend that you get one and download the Substack app. This report lists some of my favorite on Substack; my recommendations page includes a few more.
