Congratulations! I wish I’d thought to do something like this when I passed the year mark.

I took inspiration from William Collen's first-year post—otherwise, I wouldn't have thought of it either.

When's your second anniversary? A commemorative article could work on that occasion too.

Thanks for the shout-out and I'm very excited to subscribe. Can't wait to delve into what I've missed and what's ahead. Pre-writing a novel "by hand"? You're doing Wendell Berry proud!

Thanks so much for subscribing! And thanks for the high-Berry compliment, though it's not yet long-hand prose (just pages, pages, pages, and more pages of bullets points under headings).

Thank you, thank you. The honor is mine, for being able to tear up over a Substack thread in the middle of a Wednesday. Kind words, thank you again!
