Matt describes himself as an overall nice guy, and I'd have to agree. He's also a writing geek and a language geek, and his mind is super interesting, which is why I think you should read what makes it out of there and onto the page (about writing and more). Plus, he does a fun "Weekly Three," which always has some little gem (or two, or three). Oh, and he's got a dog. Enough said.
Whether or not you're a writer, if you love language, you'll enjoy Stunning Sentences. Nina illuminates the power of sentence-level language in short posts, using a fascinating array of examples. If you've ever read a sentence you wish you'd written, this Substack is for you.
If you like an honest, often humorous, straight-from-the-hip perspective, you'll enjoy Jack's posts on, well, everything! Snappy and smart. Check 'em out!
Stacey writes with passion and wit about all kinds of cool topics I usually wish I'd thought of (or knew about), like Percy Bysshe Shelley's love child or the night that changed Rome forever. Plus she's got her finger on the pulse of what's popular and political, both in the U.S. and in Italy. Enjoy!
How much can be said about finding home? A lot, as it turns out, because as Jan says, it's more journey than destination. A psychologist with spiritual tendencies, Jan writes with insight and, more important, from the heart. I'm always glad to see a new post from her in my inbox.
Kalpana writes about books in translation in a smart, deeply felt way, invariably pulling me into the stories. I can't tell you how many books I've added to my TBR list because of Letters From Everywhere. If you love to read, you'll love Kalpana's letters.
