Hi! I'm Carina and I live in Boston, MA. A former colleague told me about Article Club (back in like 2018?!) and I've been here ever since! I don't usually read long-form articles, and AC has helped encourage me out of my comfort zone :)

I'm Barry, I grew up in South Africa and currently live in Toronto, Canada.

I don't recall how I found Article Club but I'm very glad I did; it's one of the finest examples of quality content aggregation I have encountered. This is thanks to Mark's thoughtful curation of always engaging, sometimes challenging and often inspiring articles from sources I am frequently unfamiliar with. I don't know how he does it but I'm thankful for it.

Hi! I’m Fiona, I grew up in London, England and have been living in Salt Lake City, Utah for almost 12 years. Article Club was recommended to me by a friend and fellow teacher. I really appreciate the range of articles on offer each week and would welcome any stories on the topics of AI and climate change. :)

Hello. I'm Rebecca. I live in Oakland and currently work with Mark. I love long-form articles and especially love it when preselected pieces arrive in my inbox each week. About 20 years ago, I lived for a short time in Harlem (certainly part of the early-2000s gentrification wave) so I am very interested to read that piece. I am also here for the pet pictures; however, the "submit a pet photo" link isn't in the most recent newsletter, so I would like to file a complaint. ;) In other parts of my life I do things related to theater and am fascinated by learning about urban planning and placemaking.

Hey I'm Ryn, from WA-recently moved back to the US after 7 years in South Korea. I honestly can't remember where I found this subscription but I know I joined to diversify the voices and articles I pay attention to. I love learning and as I find myself looking for work, I am more and more interested in learning about new topics, culture, systemic change, and just generally the direction that the world/society is going. Nice to meet y'all!

Hi! I'm Kati and I live in Fremont, CA. I met Mark back when he taught here at Irvington High School (I'm c/o 2000, heck yeah!). I subscribed to Article Club because I, well, I love articles and learning new things. I like to read about culture, food justice, systemic change related to food, infrastructure, civil rights, and the environment.

Roll call: My name is Chris and I’m writing in from Oakland, CA! I subscribed because I value longform reading and thoughtful conversation. And Article Club does this in a community-centered way. I have a wide range of interests when it comes to my reading. For example, I just finished Chain Gang Allstars and The Wager. I’m currently reading Unattended Sorrow by Stephen Levine and On Writing Well by William Zinsser. Writers I love include George Saunders, Junot Diaz, and Ocean Vuong.
