This post goes to Patronizers in July and becomes public in August. Not a Patronizer? You could be! $12 a year gets you my latest updates, occasional free tidbits, and the completely pointless MWL Footnote Fortune File.

This post goes to Patronizers at the beginning of June and becomes public at the beginning of July. Not a Patronizer? You could be! $12 a year gets you my latest updates, occasional free tidbits, and the completely pointless MWL Footnote Fortune File. I set some ambitious goals at the beginning of last month.

I’ve considered myself well-prepared for personal financial disaster, but we’re not headed into personal financial disaster. We’re headed into a global one. […]
(This post went to Patronizers in March, and to the public in April. Not a Patronizer? You could be.) The business world is upended. Companies are bracing for survival. Jobs are being cut. It’s almost as if people realized that the ship of state has not only been overtaken by a great white whale, but […]
This See the Sausage Being Made post went to my esteemed Patronizers at the beginning of February, and will go to the public in the beginning of March. Not a Patronizer? You could be.

“The Rats’ Man’s Lackey and the Bringer of Leaves” previously appeared in Pulphouse #33, but their exclusivity period ran out and I have no shame. In updating my bibliographic SNMP MIB, I found that this is the 111th published thing with my name on it. There’s probably a Bilbo Baggins joke to be made there, […]
