"textContent": "Sure, this post by Ralph Ammer is technically about drawing, but it also maps almost perfectly onto sharing anything with audience. His idea that every drawing is a self-portrait applies just as much to newsletters. When you publish, you’re sketching a picture of how you think, what you notice, and what matters to you.\n\nWhich is why presentation matters—and why over-relying on templates can flatten the work.\n\nAs Ralph writes: _“Carefully composed drawings can show**our relation to the world**. And **that** is interesting. It is interesting because we have made a conscious choice of **what is important to us**. And chances are that this is **also interesting for others**.”_\n\nAlso: Animated illstrations!\n\n* * *\n\n_Read This_ is curated by Stephen Knezovich. Each issue shares resources and insights to help writers launch, improve & grow their email newsletter.",
