Getting Your Money's Worth
Oh, right, I’m The Writer. Right? After all some of the regular readers (thanks to analytics, baby, I know. I know.) of whatever this thing is that I do with decreasing frequency are also premium subscribers. That’s right. Some folks are sending me a little something something every month even though it appears I haven’t been doing squat to earn that money in MONTHS!
Ok, yes, I did write this nugget that I’m still inordinately fond of:
I Like White People, She Said - Remington Write
Then she wanted to chat
And a little further back I wrote this one:
Rogue AI Daydream. Robin Hood on Electronic Steroids | by Remington Write | The Partnered Pen | Medium
Robin Hood on Electronic Steroids
Hey, we can dream, right?
In other news, a couple of new reviews have shown up on the Barnes & Noble website which has me all kinds of happy (you know who you are and thank you!).
Ah, but what have I done for you lately? It’s less what I have done these days than what I am doing.
It’s memoir time, Readers All, and my partner in life and art helped by hauling out all the old journals from the vault where I shoved them nearly 23 years ago when I moved into this apartment.
And if you think this is scary, you are right.
I’m three chapters in and have had to pause to determine how best to be honest, be unsparing of myself, and also be as anonymous as possible to avoid hurting innocent bystanders. Truth told: I was a tornado ripping my way through the unlucky lives of family and friends. I did a lot of damage.
I can’t make it worse by digging open old wounds and parading the results in public.
This is an entirely new beastie in my experience.
First: thank you a hundred thousand times for the generous and kind support you have continued to provide…Readers ALL!
Second: I encourage anyone who wishes to end their premium subscription to do so with my blessings. This work is going to take years and, while I’ll certainly cleanse the palate from time to time with the usual chatty this&that on Medium and/or Substack, you won’t exactly be getting your money’s worth.
Even so, I’ll keep the hat by the door.
I continue to urge Readers All to send along any dangling participles as well as all pulchritudinous platitudes to: Remington.write@gmail.com
Back to it (and again, thank you)
