Why so few things?

Because a brand that will sell you anything is telling you something about itself. These four objects each do a job in the book — the blanket is the title, the mala is chapter nine, the journal is where the exercises go, the print is the last line.

When there is a fifth thing worth making, there will be a fifth thing.

In the meantime

The book the blanket is named for.

Ten chapters on ambition without self-obsession, money as flow rather than score, and what to do when the thing you built comes apart.

One hundred and thirty-eight pages, ten dollars, instant download.

The Letters
