Congratulations on one year! Loved the short story. I enjoy all of your stuff so not much to say! Link round ups of things you’ve read online that you enjoyed would be cool. Other music reviews or film reviews you like etc
Really enjoying the thrice-weekly missives Simon. Yea the book / writing stuff might be underperforming (and I too would read it less often), I appreciate that it promotes content that I normally wouldn't proactively search out. We all need some curation in our lives, lest we be enslaved by the algorithms of spiraling blandness. Keep it up!
This is great - thank you. In short, I have thought about doing something on politics now and then - but mostly I think my stuff exists in a nice space away from that. We get blasted w/ pols whether we want to or not, right? But maybe I'll dip in now and then. And I'll look again at the rest of what you've asked and give it thought. Thanks for being on board. Appreciated greatly.

Can you do politics occasionally?
Or is it arts only?
Also, I'd welcome pieces on the weirder sides of NZ culture.
But I like what you do. You've got your own voice.
I'm always intrigued when I see your emails arrive. Yours and Farrier's.
That made me think, a piece on the best Substacks and why they're good?
I'm time-poor, you see. Recommendations from trusted sources are gold to me.
Has this been helpful? Probably not.
Just keep doing what you do. It'll all work out.
Cheers. Looking forward to another year of Sounds Good.

Yes, true actually about politics. You're right, nice not to think about it at times. Good point.
