Here are a few recent editions to give you a taste of the newsletter:
Who am I and why am I writing this newsletter:
I'm Erin, and I am from the Bay Area and I decided to write this newsletter because I wanted to talk about two of my favorite things: books and music.
I won't delve into my origin story, but as an only child, books and music were my constant companions throughout my childhood. Some of my favorite memories with my parents include going to the library with my mom to write book reports in my spare time and attending concerts with my dad. One of my first concerts with him was to see Cameo at Kimball's East—as a six-year-old.
Throughout the years, the comfort I found in both music and books continued, and I began writing about music for various publications, including Okayplayer, Respect Magazine, Wax Poetics, Frank151, and a few others. I also had a blog focused on music and books called Beats & Reads. I continue to offer recommendations to my friends and others I talk to, so I've decided to compile them in one place here.
I'm excited that you're reading this because you may consider becoming a subscriber.
