Support My Writing Through Ko-Fi

Support my writing at: https://ko-fi.com/c1typlann3r

I started a Ko-fi page. Ko-fi (☕️ but it rhymes with “No Fee”) is a micro-donations platform for creators. Ko-fi enables folks to support my writing passion projects. And, Ko-fi sends 100% of the donations to the creator, me!

I launched this because in 2021, I’m ramping up writing about Embedded Planning, my praxis that situates the work of city planners on the streets, not behind a desk. I’m also writing about Public Space, Los Angeles, and more.

Wanna be a part of these efforts?! Your donations will help fund my process, including research, printing, web and database access, copyediting fees, and of course, the iterative and emotional part of writing. Anything helps!

Please consider supporting my writing and praxis that advances equity in urban planning. Thank you so much.

In solidarity,
JPB @c1typlann3r

A Critique of Substack

Here’s a good critique of the emerging medium of writing + publishing through Substack. Also reads as a Big Up to old school blogging, with rich links to blogs past and present.

The author of Applied Divinity Studies published this as a guest post on Nintil blog.

“How Substack Became Milquetoast.”
