Ralf,

Sorry for responding to your message so late. I can’t thank you enough for reading my piece.

It’s hard to explain, but there’s something truly nourishing and redemptive about reading and writing high quality content. There are authors I enjoy who don’t make a ton of money off their writing, but they invest a great deal into making the best stuff they possibly can. I’ve learned so much from other people and enjoy phenomenal writing so deeply that I’m mainly committed to creating (and consuming) content that kicks my brain into a higher gear.
