Today’s story is a little different from the usual—there are two options. I made it into an ebook, which is available as a pay-what-you-want purchase via Gumroad. You can download it for free, but if you pay anything for it, I am donating 75% of the profits from the ebook to Feeding America, a nonprofit whose network of food banks is the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. You get an ebook, someone in need gets some help. Here’s the link to the ebook on Gumroad. That’s Option 1.
If you’re not into ebooks, no worries, Option 2 is for you: Part 1 is available below today, and Part 2 will be published next Tuesday. (If you’re on the Semi-Rad email list, you’ll get it in your inbox on Tuesday morning.)
Regardless of how you experience it, I hope you enjoy this piece—it’s been in the works for a long time.
That’s the end of Part 1. Part 2 is coming Tuesday (but if you want to read it now, here’s another link to the ebook.)
