How about these paid subscriptions?
Writers do a lot of writing for free. I wouldn’t offer Field Notes for free if I didn’t want to. However, especially in this digital age, we’ve become accustomed to consuming content without paying for it. This creates a tricky balance for writers. It actually costs writers to give something away for free, and that’s where paid subscriptions come in.
Essentially, each paid subscription helps me say no to gigs that pay my bills but don’t particularly inspire me, and yes to putting my creativity and energy into Field Notes.
Paying subscribers will receive a monthly article called Letters Home, which are special updates straight from me to you (and often too vulnerable to send to post publicly!) I’ll also be offering subscriber-only specials, giveaways and other opportunities.
A founding membership gives you the chance to offer more than my annual rate and be a patron of my work, for which I’ll send you a special gift.
