Tom Scharpling?!?

What's a big star like that doing in a newsletter like this?

I’d enjoyed dipping in and out of various Best Show debates (“Improve a movie by adding a dirtbike!” “50 Biggest Crabapples”), but I didn’t quite get Scharpling and his whole thing until listening to a 30-minute monologue he put out in lieu of a show back in February. He spent a good bit of time reflecting on creative struggles and his desire not to find himself at the finish line “with a pile of half-done ideas.” To acutally [sic] do something with ideas, he reminded himself of something a boss told him once: “ideas are cheap.”

This had everything to do with the things I’ve been thinking and asking people about here in the “How Do You Finish a Book?” section of A Saturday Letter. And so, when Scharpling said on a recent episode that, to promote his new book, he’d talk to any “nursing home newsletter with nine subscribers,” it was a perfect fit (It helps that A Saturday Letter has a tremendous open rate down at Our Lady of Perpetual Dentures).
