So, I haven’t done one of these in a million years. This is not an unnecessary, self-important apology like when bloggers would make a big deal about not regularly updating, as if anyone noticed or cared. It’s not as if I’m bereft of newsletter fodder, it’s that for the past seven months I’ve had to wake up at 6:30am and churn out an 800+ word article about financial tech while fielding urgent--often borderline emotionally abusive (I will not say “violent,” which is one of my latest semantic pet peeves. Microaggressions aren’t violence. And yes, I just used “microaggression.”) email requests until 3pm and sometimes on weekends for significantly less money than I was accustomed to. That left a whole afternoon and evening, but I had no mental energy to do anything words-wise the rest of the day.
