patronsAbout Art Of Conversation
Currently, I write one or two essays a month. Each essay requires significant time for reading, research, writing two or three drafts, publishing the essays with artwork, and maintaining the website – and I have to split my time between all of this and holding down a day job. My goal is for Art Of Conversation to earn enough that I can focus on it without the need for other work. If this happens, I plan to begin a series of travel-essays that look at the culture and history of Europe through the writing and cinema of various places. Who knows where else this project could go?
Contributions are on a per-essay basis, but you can set a monthly limit in case the muse is promiscuous one month and I somehow write a hundred essays. If you find value in Art Of Conversation and can contribute your pledge to it, you can be a crucial part of keeping this conversation going.
Goals
To celebrate: I'll put out a monthly "Marginalia" – a round-up of all the best movies, books, and music I've enjoyed every month, available to all patrons who pledge $5 or more.
