New Year — Letters — Tobi Nifesi

Letters from the first and the 15th

The first and the 15th is a biweekly newsletter (seriously, you only receive it on the first and the 15th of each month) where I share my worldview as a human writer in a world where writing is increasingly being underappreciated.

I explore the concept of using writing, reading, and books as a way to share ideas and start meaningful conversations. And just for the fun of it, I may include a book recommendation so you can add it to the growing stack of books you buy but never actually read. Yes, you.

See you in 2021

As we move on from 2020, remember all that you’ve learnt from this year. Stick to your new commitments. Disregard old and selfish ways of thinking. Continue to act from a place of love and cherish fellow human beings’ lives.
