Hello,

I greatly enjoy taking notes on various news, people, and events to do with socialism.

I take great pride in these notes, and I really think that they strike a very good balance, providing a good summary, as well as all the necessary details.

For context, here’s an example:

https://share.note.sx/g89t6c6h#d8HPAz1GPc6bF692Hy2Cb8jCtmTKxcyaZ00V72kQLSw

For the past two years, I’ve been making notes like this for countless topics, and I can’t help but feel like they’re basically just going to waste. Sure, they might come in useful in the future, but just letting them sit there feels like a waste.

I was wondering if anyone had some idea as to what I could possibly do with these. Should I post them here? Is there some other community that might appreciate these? Is there some obvious answer that I’m just missing?

Many thanks.

    Social media + smaller quote posts and analysis from your substack about something relevant to recent topics; there’s no foolproof way not to look like a spammer, so just be honest and accept it and others will accept it too if they feel you genuinely contributing something (admittedly, a big if). We live under capitalism, there is no escaping it without revolution.

    I would write for the purpose of writing but if you want to monetise it to get an income (which may you want to do, it’s tough out there) then things may inevitably become a bit complicated/mucky.

    (The acadaemia stuff was also to help hone one’s craft, one can easily get the equivalent of an almost degree with self education these days)
