I send out weekly letters with updates on what I’m building, reading, and thinking. It’s often accompanied by a new thinkpiece or essay about whatever I'm currently exploring.
You too can join this community defined by exquisite taste and extreme coolness.
This practice started off during my 50 days of writing in 2023 as an update letter to 10 people – my parents, mentors, and a couple of friends. Since then, a bunch of (very cool) strangers from around the world have started to follow along.
The letters now take the following structure
accouterments (sic.): a detailed list of everything I’ve found interesting that week
writing: any new writing I’ve done here, on blasé raire or anywhere else
reading: my fav essays and papers from the week
