After writing a book, I must wait a year or more for the gears of traditional publishing to turn.  On my website, I can release my work the moment it’s finished, and it becomes immediately available to everyone. The articles on my blog also reach a wider audience than they would in most magazines and newspapers—and I have complete control over the creative process. Increasingly, I find that I would rather publish here than in any other forum.

Rather than put my work behind a paywall, I’ve decided to let readers support it to whatever degree they wish. This way, my essays, interviews, and podcasts will remain freely available to everyone.

So if you find any of my work useful, you can now sponsor it directly in these ways:

I’m tremendously honored to have a community of people who value what I do. And I look forward to taking our conversation in new directions.

Many thanks for your support,

Sam
