Where I share things I didn't know

I'm posting regularly on Notes—quick thoughts, worthwhile reads, and the ideas that keep me thinking.

If you're enjoying my longer-form work, you might also like what I’m sharing on Notes. It’s where I drop quick reactions, fascinating links, and snippets from the worlds of science, history, books, business, archeology, and the ever-evolving media landscape.

Sometimes they’re in Spanish, since I follow lots of people in Latin America and Spain.

Think of it as a backstage pass to what’s fueling my curiosity day-to-day. Give me a follow there—I'd love to keep the conversation going in a more casual, real-time way.

How to join

Head to substack.com/notes or find the “Notes” tab in the Substack app. As a subscriber to Your News Biz, you’ll automatically see my notes. Feel free to like, reply, or share them around!

You can also share notes of your own. I hope this becomes a space where every reader of Your News Biz can share thoughts, ideas, and interesting quotes from the things we're reading on Substack and beyond.

Why Substack Notes

Fellow writers and readers are spending time in Notes for a variety of reasons.

Ted Gioia sees Notes as a forum for dialogue.

The idea behind Notes is simple. Millions of people now participate in Substack as writers and readers—but much of this is built on long articles and essays. We now have a forum for dialoguing and sharing shorter posts.

Chris Ryan is drawn to Substack as an alternative for legacy social media.

One of my main reasons for joining Substack was to wean myself off exploitative social media platforms. I’m hoping this is going to help move us along on that journey!

Sherman Alexie wants to create a kind and creative new space in Notes.

I’m going to focus on being positive, with my own thoughts and photos and by linking to songs, stories, poems from around the web and from other Substacks.

If you encounter any issues, you can always refer to the Notes FAQ for assistance. Looking forward to seeing you there!
