You can think of The Paris Letters as a series of essays, an ongoing conversation, a catalogue of ideas, and a repository of thoughts . . . in newsletter form. Published once a month on a Sunday, the letters range from personal stories to cultural critiques. If that sounds interesting to you, subscribe here si’l vous plaît and join the conversation. Some of my other writing from over the years below.

“Love words, agonize over sentences, and pay attention to the world.”
