Changing things up.
A new horizon for content by Peter Banks
Summary: Peter Banks announces the consolidation of his two separate mailing lists into a single Strong Ideas Held Lightly platform to solve coordination problems. While Voyagers-Log will continue as an open publication welcoming contributed articles, Strong Ideas Held Lightly operates on a reader-supported model with subscriptions ($5/month or $30/year). The author promises to maintain a steady stream of paywalled content and has exciting ideas in the pipeline.
Welcome, friends, readers, and acquaintances:
Many of you originally subscribed to my writings through a publication I began with two college friends, Voyagers‑Log. As some of you may know, I’ve also been running a second blog called Strong Ideas Held Lightly - the one you’re reading now. My original plan was to maintain two separate mailing lists, but that presented more problems than it solved, so I’ve decided to consolidate onto this platform.
Voyagers‑Log will continue to exist, and I’d love to publish more articles by interested writers. If you’d like to contribute, please let me know!
This change is also an invitation to support me if you have the means. Unlike Voyagers‑Log, which we never monetized, Strong Ideas Held Lightly is entirely reader‑supported. A monthly subscription costs $5, and an annual subscription is just $30. Your support grants you access to a steady stream of paywalled articles—and it will forever warm my heart.
From your perspective, not much will change, except you’ll receive an abundance of essays from me. I have some exciting ideas in the pipeline, and I’ll notify you when they’re ready for prime time. For now, that’s all.
Best,
Peter
