Also please structure your submission as cleanly as you can, e.g., an ideal email looks something like:

Title

Preferred Name

Link (URL)

Please either email from the address you are a paid subscriber on, or let me know that email in the submission itself.

I write pretty specific stuff about building software products & businesses for the logistics industry. Its not likely something you'd love (my guess). But I'm in the process of writing a substack article that was triggered by reading your book (product management advances via paradigm shifts, I think), so I'll share that in a few days.

WOW what a generous offer! Going to ponder what I’d want you to read, as I’ve published a lot for the public, and send you something. Thanks for this!

Published, like in an academic journal or by a known publisher? E.g., substack or medium doesn't count?

I missed your deadline! Your call for submissions is such a generous idea, Eric.

I am a past subscriber. Always challenged by how much time to commit to Substack. This will bring me back. Such a generous offer of your time and consideration. Unexpected acts are the very best. Enjoyed your interview with Sam Harris immensely.

Erik, I'm worried about the trend of paywalling good information. What's going to happen if one can only gain access to a variety of quality writing that's written by intelligent humans if one can pay for it? It's like the rich getting richer & the poor getting poorer leading into a worse outcome of the dumb getting dumber & the smart getting smarter.

This is a great opportunity, Erik! Thank you. I sent an email on August 16th and a follow-up email, but since I didn't receive confirmation, I figured there was some sort of mistake.

Title: Death, religion, and a Salvia Trip

Subtitle: How Big Gods and our fear of death shaped our societies.

Hey Erik! Are you still looking for subscriber writing? I might have something for you.

This is a mindfuck. Must pay to subscribe, then send me your work and I will briefly mention it (somewhere) and no, I don’t acknowledge submissions, but you can only do it once. Perfect scam. Got me.

I have a number of works under various pen names on Amazon kindle (I'm a novelist, among other things). Could I send you the link to one of them?

Just checking? Do you send an acknowledgement of submissions? (I emailed a submission on the 19th by the way). Thanks

I have never worked so hard to try to subscribe to anything before. All I get is messages saying I can manage subscription from the app, I give up, how the f¥{€ do I subscribe???
