you’re at the Border Crossing…

Thanks for stopping by.

Border Crossing is a regular twice-monthly email zine, which I publish on the first and third Sunday of each month. It includes my recommended cultural gems, sometimes a long-read essay (if I’ve been inspired to write one) and various other bits. Occasionally I’ll mess with the format. Plus, you’re the first to hear about anything else I’m doing in writing, music and broadcasting.

If you level up to become a paid subscriber you’ll additionally get my eternal gratitude, the joy of knowing you’re directly supporting my writing work, plus you are guaranteed a free copy (digital and physical) of anything and everything that I produce. This includes your free signed copy of any books, pamphlets or music that I put out in the coming months or years. There are other occasional lovely extras, whenever I think of them.

It’s no effort

Paid or free, each new issue plops gently into your inbox, zero effort.

Join the circle

There’s a growing community of lovely, interesting people here, contributing ideas and joining in. They’re very nice.
