Haha, when I first glanced at your post, I thought it said "salvage a few nuggets from the general schmuck." I thought, well, gee, if THAT'S all he thinks of his readers, maybe it was a mistake to subscribe?
But I was wrong. It didn't say that. And your writing is delightful. I'm very glad to have found you, thank you for this Substack!
Love your essays and the brief exploration of a fluttering mind and how could you go wrong with an assistant such as Henry 👍 love the cosy illustration too 💖
excellent.thank you. i am in a writing group and we are limited to 400 words each session. i find the brevity invigorating, even if i sometimes long for an extra 200!
sadly or funnily I wished your writing had continued. To be candid: I felt pieces like this, with such a start and interest, and inviting body content should have been sustained much longer. But I understand the principle attached nonetheless.
Well put, nicely laid out with a few memorable nuggets of gold tossed out unlike pearls to swine.
You are kind to say so. One tries, now and then, to salvage a few nuggets from the general muck.

I’m glad both the essays and Henry found favor. A good dog improves almost any page.

I’m glad the discipline suits you. Brevity can be a tonic. It forces the thought to arrive sooner, and better dressed.
This is absolutely perfect (and I Henry is adorable)!
How kind of you. And yes, Henry improves almost everything he touches, including the prose.
