A short little reminder-announcement: creating your own personal Rule of Life is both a time-tested practice and a great way to kick off a new year (but also, it’s good any time of year) — and I’ve got a little tool to guide you in the process of creating your own.

"It gives meaning to survival..."

Formative books, formative places. A Drink With a Friend is a seasonal conversation series with writer Tsh Oxenreider—friends, new and old, chatting about what's shaped them: the book they loved as a kid, the one forming them now, and a place, big or small, they've never forgotten. No agenda, no hot takes ...just the best kinds of conversations over a good drink with a friend. thecommon.place
