Congrats Brink, long time reader here and have throughly enjoyed your essays and responses to any questions I’ve had in prior comment sections.
As an aside, I’m a Podcast Producer — most recently working with The Rich Roll Podcast. It would be a delight to support, if ever you need Producer/Editor help.
Equally, if there’s not a fit, no harm. I eagerly look forward to the book.
Congratulations on the book deal! I look forward to reading it!
Substack has turned into a great platform to look beyond print media, newsletters, and even eBooks. I am seeing more and more writing seize this opportunity, and I think it is great. I hope Substack eventually enables us to sell books directly from our stacks.
For me personally, I found that while I can “serialize” articles into an eBook, a book’s structural needs imposes limitations. At Risk & Progress, my goal is endless iteration and improvement…If I learn something new, I go back and edit past essays. Thus, instead of an book, per se, I am building an organic “essay series” that almost reads like a book, but retains a degree of flexibility that enables easy future iteration.
Brink, I look forward to the book. You made me a fan with your discussion of the memoir just published by Edmond Phelps. In today's world of Hamiltonian Capitalism, with its gigantic companies and bureaucracies and oligopolies all driven by finance and consumerism -- how can most people -- and not just the elite -- participate in a practical and constructive way, without missing "the perennial elements of love, friendship, community, belonging, a sense of purpose, and pride-in-workmanship -- that bulk most prominently in a well-lived life." Please, tell us how. Or, is Phelps right, that people are much better off than you think?
Fantastic! Congratulations! I've very much enjoyed and agreed with almost everything you've written. I'd love it if you could add more in the book about how we could go about encouraging a personal and cultural worldview that transcends the mess we have now. Then, the rest would be (relatively) easy.

Congratulations.
Bravo
Terrific I knew you’d get there. The new right way to write books, think out loud for all to see and react to. A virtual seminar tour
Congratulations!

Please let us know how the writing process goes.
