Default Another hotsheet - for those who like long-form nonfiction...

Hi Gordon,

Here's another example of a hotsheet I haven't seen mentioned here before...

It's called The Best of Journalism, by journalist Conor Friedersdorf.

He finds what in his opinion are the best long-form non-fiction articles.

Each weekly issue (sent by email) primarily consists of the headlines, plus links to those articles. For some of the articles (but not all), he writes a sentence or three introducing the article. The whole thing is less than a page.

He charges just $1.99 per month, but I suspect it would be relatively quick for him to put together (since he probably reads these articles anyway, as it's related to his work).

I don't know for sure, but I suspect he probably has thousands of paying subscribers.

Here are some of the articles he linked to in 2015...

Best wishes,

Dien
