Thanks for reading. This newsletter is a reader-supported publication. The best way to support my work is to buy my books, hire me to speak, shop for some of my favorite gear (I get a cut), or become a paid subscriber and help keep Fridays free for everyone: xoxo, Austin PS. It’s “dads and grads” season in bookstores, so a reminder: my books make great gifts! You’re a free subscriber to Austin Kleon. For the full experience, become a paid subscriber. |
