About The Notices

The Notices is a fortnightly(ish) jumble of creative provocations, thoughtful diversions and unexpected interconnections that I've noticed.

While you're waiting for the next Friday to roll around:

Check out On Reading: Provocations, consolations and suggestions for reading more freely. It's a book about how to read, rather than what to read. It (unexpectedly) started life in one of these newsletters. (There's also a lovely little hardback edition of it, too.)

As well as The Notices, I also write a newsletter about brands with great tones of voice. It's called Tone Knob.

Having trouble getting started on a creative project? You need my patented, highly effective Productivity System (TM) Get The F*ck On With It. (It actually works.)

Wanna chat? Ping me an email at nick@thatexplainsthings.com. I reply to every single one.

Cheers,

Nick


PS - some housekeeping…

If you can’t find the newsletter, check your spam folder. And please mark this address as ‘not spam.’ If the newsletter isn’t in your spam folder, either, you should look in the Promotions tab.

Thanks again, and please tell a few friends if you feel like it.

A writer, mostly. Personal noodlings here. I also write Tone Knob, a Substack about brands doing interesting things with their tone of voice and language. www.nickparker.co.uk
