Noted: A giveaway of sorts

If you’ve ever wondered about the work that happens behind the scenes of productive, successful artists, leaders, and thinkers, then I’ve got a treat for you!

I’ve been a (paid) subscriber to Noted, a newsletter by CUNY English professor and author Jillian Hess, for some time now, and I LOVE it!

Every week Jillian publishes “a newsletter focused on a particular note-taker with an overview of their note-taking life, inspiring quotes, archival photos, and meditations on what I’ve learned from their notes.”

That’s giveaway number one: Just check out Noted.

With an unpaid subscription, you can see things like:

• ​Jonathan Larson’s notes for Rent
• ​Octavia Butler’s “Essentials of Success”
• ​Eminem’s boxes of notes
• ​Jim Morrison’s poetry notes ​
• ​Virginia Woolf’s handmade notebooks ​
• ​Martin Luther King Jr.’s organizational systems ​
• ​James Baldwin’s doodles​

But wait, there’s more…

If you love it and want to read some of the paid ones (like the Kurt Cobain one, which is what got me, or the Beatles’ collaborative notes), I have been granted the inestimable power to gift three (3) free ($0) one month (1 mo.) subscriptions!!!

Let me know, and if you’re one of the first three to respond, I’ll make it so 🙂

Noted,
James

P.S. I recorded the first episode of my upcoming podcast, Away From the Desk, this evening, and it was AWESOME! Stay tuned.
