The Why
The purpose of Height is to share perspective on American culture — news, sports, media, technology, business, and often the intersections of each.
Each week, my goal is to deliver thought-provoking / funny / engaging / informative content to your email inbox.
This is not altruism. My New Year’s resolution is to spend more time reading and writing and I think this experiment-of-sorts will help keep me honest.
Delivery
Height Mail is free for the first month and $3.99/month following. Each issue will arrive in your email inbox on Friday mornings. You can cancel anytime.
I chose to charge small monthly fee for my weekly newsletter (Newsletter? Column? Whatever.) because I believe that an investment from my readers, albeit minor, will impose a level of long-term accountability that I have lacked in previous attempts to rediscover writing. And maybe you are more likely to open a few extra emails per month knowing it is costing you the price of a cappuccino.
Alright, it’s time to talk about my friend here. Many of you are thinking, “Great.. More fucking emails.” I don’t blame you, I too suffer from inbox overwhelm. Please, do not think of this as “more emails.” It is content delivered to an inbox. Right now, it is your email but I hope to experiment with other delivery methods if this thing catches on. You will never be required to respond and the topics will be relevant but not time-sensitive, so bookmark it and save it for Sunday morning if you’d prefer.
Thank you
I hope you are willing to give Height a shot.
