Support This Isn't It and Amy Farnham

This Isn't It is a reader-supported publication. Everyone who signs up for a subscription gets access to all of the great newsletter content, but paid subscriptions and one-time gifts keep the lights on.

A paid subscription is more than a financial transaction–it's your appreciation for what I'm doing and saying. Your onetime gift is not purchasing a product–it's building relationship and reciprocity between us. That's a model that just feels right for what I'm doing. I hope it feels right to you, too. 

Are you wondering what your financial support would go toward? Beyond basic website hosting expenses and helping pay for my time researching and writing, your support helps me with:

• Experiences that help me connect with the world around me. Examples include the Kachemak Bay Shorebird Festival and a week volunteering for the Tetlin National Wildlife Refuge banding ducks. If there's something specific you'd like to hear more about, let me know.

• Work on my memoir, Red-Blooded American Magic. If you've written a book, you know it's not a one-person job. Your support helps pay for coaching and editing services as I polish my first full draft. (Hat tip to Eva Langston who helped me finish my first full draft of the book in early 2025. She has all kinds of great resources for writers. If you’re a writer, check her out.)

• Books and subscriptions so I can share with you the best of what I'm reading. For every book or publication that's so amazing I HAVE to share it with you, I've probably read 20 others that don't quite make the cut.

I hope you're as excited to hear about these experiences as I am to tell you about them!

In gratitude,

Amy Farnham
