✏️ About This Newsletter
Common Discourse is a weekly briefing designed to help others (and myself) think through creativity, focus, and intentional work. It hits your inbox every Tuesday at 9:17am.
Each briefing is structured with a brief idea(s) from me, a quote from somebody else, and a few links leading to interesting things I found on the Internet over the last week.
