Thank you, new friend!

I'm really grateful for your trust and support—and for choosing to support at the Friends level. You're now one of a small group of people going above and beyond to make this work possible. That means the world to me.

Your membership matters more than you might think:

The Weekly Filet is 100% independent. My entire focus is on valuing your attention and providing moments that inspire people to pause and think. Your support is how we keep spaces like this alive.

Every member counts. Because it means that I can devote more time to making the newsletter as good as it gets. And on a personal level: Those late nights writing the newsletter feel worth it knowing you're out there, valuing my work.

Finally, with your membership, you enable all the work I do that is accessible to everyone, like the free version of the newsletter, Weekly Filet Awards, the annual book club or the collections. You help provide a better info diet to everyone.

Here's what you unlocked for yourself:

As a member, you will get the extended version of the Weekly Filet. That's the 5 hand-picked recommendations, plus a set of instant-gratification links for when you need something lighter, and my personal book recommendation of the week. And no more ads, ever.

You now also have access to the complete archive of the Weekly Filet, dating back to 2011. That's 14 years of carefully curated recommendations, ready for you to explore.

Plus, as a Friend of the Filet, you get:

🎁 Have a friend read along with you. You can give one membership to a friend, for free. Send me an email to let me know who you'd like to give it to.

I'm always here:

Questions? Ideas? Something you think I should see? Write me at david@weeklyfilet.com or hit reply to any newsletter. I read and respond to every email.

See you soon, and, again, thank you!

You're the kind of supporter everyone wishes they had.
