Hello Maggie,
It’s great to see you posting regularly, but I miss your longform blogging. Is this something you are unable to find the time or energy for these days?
If it’s that you don’t think enough people are interested, I hope this will be enough of a push for you to consider resuming.

Had I received enough financial support for that over the past ten years, I could’ve continued to dump energy into that. But partly due to most people wanting everything for free, and partly to Google censoring “adult” writing, I’ve had to pivot to spending a larger % of my energy on things that actually pay my bills.
I always thought writing was one of your favorite activities, something you’d find time for anyway! I’m sad to know that I can’t expect to take sizable bites of it anytime soon.

I’m continually amazed how many people believe in a free lunch for themselves when they would be shocked if someone expected a free meal from them.
All valuable labor deserves fair compensation, even when the person doing the labor does it out of love. In fact, I think it’s even more important to compensate a labor of love since the quality is so much higher.
No one is going to get rich off the small donations I make each year to the few things left I can believe in, but like Glenn Greenwald over at The Intercept (I hope Maggie doesn’t mind the comparison) Maggie is a rare defender of the forgotten, invisible and despised in our society.
If every blog reader here simply sent in the equivalent of an hour of her social time each year, it would set them back little, but the cumulative affect could make a real difference.
Stepping of my soap box now…
