Great story, loved it! Just a slight suggestion that you might want to consider; I hadn't known your book was available for a year now; I came across it by chance through this comment section. Would it make sense to add a tiny addendum at the end of your articles for dummies such as myself? Makes it easier to discover perhaps!
Nah thats a good spirit there Will, but we have to promote that spirit while being realistic about the world we’re in. Your writing is great and deserves to be seen by lots of us duffheads/ dummies. You can self promote with selling your soul.
n.b. Congrats to everyone who questions “just trust the app” 😄 ... if you’re curious what’s really underneath, dig into the Commitment Pooling Protocol: not swipe-matching people, but making offers + needs legible as commitments that can be curated, limited, and routed into real-world fulfilled loops. https://willruddick.substack.com/p/grassroots-economics-the-book-is

good idea. (ok done)
I think as well that people sharing the book link honestly does more than me copy-pasting it everywhere (imo). https://willruddick.substack.com/p/grassroots-economics-the-book-is

note taken and thanks and hugs.
n.b. promotion of our work (which I actually do a lot) simply reaches about 2% or less of my followers/subscribers on social media.
The algorithmic suggestions people are getting ... and the bombardment with all kinds of attention grabbing stuff out there is overwhelming.
When in competition with all that and a million ideologues and interest groups ... the signal to noise ratio vanishes.
Hence my point earlier .... word of mouth .... you and other folks sharing directly ..... actually reaches WAY more people than I ever could.
Also note subscribing as a paid subscriber is immensely helpful as well.
Thanks!
Great story, thank you for sharing it. It made me smile and feel grateful for all the little moments of being present.
