The Annual Beautiful Eccentrics Holiday Edition
Dear readers,
It is hard to believe that since January of 2021, when Beautiful Eccentrics first launched, I have shared with you close to 160 columns, which average about 300,000 words.
Each column takes many long hours of research and writing. What has motivated me to continue with this experiment is your level of engagement and the fact that each column often prompts new conversations, friendships, and even collaborations.
I am very inspired to continue with this experiment. But I need your help to make it sustainable.
Every year we do a fundraiser for Beautiful Eccentrics. This year we are making available two “Eccentric Editions”— a package of items that might serve as holiday gifts for friends and family. We offer two options:
Eccentric Edition Option #1:
A collection of 9 limited edition, small books containing 9 classic Beautiful Eccentric columns, published by Kiosk in Ghent (and part of the 2023 project at Kiosk, “Beautiful Eccentrics: Central Casting”). Signed.
