Thanks a LOT. Now I've got like five more publications in my inbox. Substack is ruining me.

Please don't do this again for a long time.

Ah! I need less to read, not more!

Thanks though for this roundup. I'm familiar with many of these letters but haven't subscribed because I fear I don't have enough bandwidth. But you've certainly convinced me to look again and make space.

As for me, my essential Stack is Extra Evil by Dennard Dayle: https://extraevil.substack.com/ He's too funny and too clever for his own good.

One off the beaten path, that I found through Dennard, and which is likewise incredibly smart, is q-sharp whydunnit by Jessi Jezewska Stevens: https://jjezewskastevens.substack.com/

These are great--I know some and they make perfect sense given what you’re doing, and thus I’ll go look at the others. One I think you may like is Henrik Karlsson’s Escaping Flatland: https://escapingflatland.substack.com/

Yee-haw! Indeed. Thank you, Amy, for the mention! I genuinely believe that Substack fosters an exceptional community for both readers and writers. Your newsletter has been an invaluable source of knowledge for me as well.

Thanks for the mention Amy! I am honoured to have made your roundup:) I am glad that you feel that I present a 'non-dogmatic' perspective, as I hope to be accessible and provide valuable perspectives to readers from any background. (As a side-note, I am actually a classically-oriented homeschooler, but find value in combining this approach with 'open source' learning).

I truly appreciate your engaging style of writing and look forward to joining with you in the May 'digital detox' community:) For anyone else interested in joining us see:

Thanks for the links. I subscribed to a couple. Not sure if you follow Erik Davis, but his substack is The Burning Shore. He posts infrequently and the subject matter is scattershot, but his thoughts are full of insight. I think you'd like his latest: https://www.burningshore.com/p/the-weird-and-the-banal
