Read a Mind-Blowing Essay!

3


3 per session - Virtual OK - Posted Feb 24, 2017

I will ask you a series of questions about your preferences and intellectual interests, and then recommend a nonfiction article, paper, or blog post that will *probably* blow your mind. I've made less essay recommendations than book recommendations, so I can't *guarantee* that this will work, but I'm happy to give you a Simbi refund if you felt like the essay I recommended isn't worth your time!

Training & Qualifications


extremely well-read on a variety of subjects, academically talented, a humanist/humanitarian, and I love giving reading recommendations!

Availability & Preferences


this can be done over text/email, so basically free whenever

Trading Preference: I’m flexible, just hit me up!
