It Takes Many Voices. We Need Yours!
A short note to readers today.
Hello from Chicago on a 94 degree day!
I hope everyone is settled into a respite from your week or if you are working, you are looking forward to a day off soon!
I have been thinking about this for a good bit. I have not properly thanked my readers for many, many months. Correcting this today: Thank you !
Thank you for reading and interacting with me. Thank you for the kind notes. Thank you for your no-so-kind, but interesting notes and thank you for the challenges to my thinking. I find all of it interesting, keeps me engaged and broadens my thinking. Thank you!
Today, I also want to let you know that it truly does take many voices when we are in this position in our country, society, time and space. It takes all of us. I encourage all of you to express yourself in any way that is comfortable. Exchange ideas and thoughts with writers on this platform, read other independent platforms who provide news, journalism, explanations and observations. Many voices make everything better.
Make sure you share your voice with friends, neighbors, writers, politicians, journalists, folks out of state and across the country. Whether it is in writing, talking, social media and, hopefully in person as much as you can.
Most importantly, what are you interested in right now? Please share any topics you would like me to write about. I am all ears. Simply shoot me an email back or send me a note on the platform or hit me on my socials.
Finally, as you know, I have said all along I will keep my column free for all forever, but, I will make the formal ask today, if you are inclined to be a paid subscriber, I would be honored and indebted to you if you would.
Also, know if that is uncomfortable, no worries. My subscription is only $5/month, most are $8-10.
Thank you for the opportunity to exchange ideas.
Have a good weekend,
M
