Syzygy Business

Whom amongst us doesn’t love getting email? Starting in 2024, I aim to send out an issue of my newsletter miscellany every full moon. Thoughts on the books I’m reading, photos of some dogs I saw, over-analysis of Céline Sciamma movies… it’s difficult to know what will be involved from one month to the next. (A good place to start, however, would be to browse the archive of past issues.)

If you’d like to sign up for future issues, drop your email below — zero spam; zero trackers; zero analytics, just an email from me to you every ~29 days.1

Alternatively, an RSS feed for the newsletter is available here
