The craft I love

As we near the end of another week, I’m grateful. It’s been 19 months since Omni Reporter began its journey of offering uplifting and informative content with an eye toward driving progress in the world. And I myself am always uplifted with every show of support, be it a financial contribution, a card or gift, signing up for the newsletter, or simply sending an email full of love for what this venture has become — a place people can turn to for a more positive, encouraging view on the world around us.

As many of you know, this is a craft I love. I truly enjoy writing articles and editorials, taking countryside drives to create great photography, and putting it all together in a useful way that informs and inspires. Along with that comes the best parts of journalism: learning new things, meeting new people, and telling a good story. At the heart of this reader-supported venture is sharing not only information, but also hope and encouragement — a combination people have really responded to. And because of that, some of you have recently joined Omni Reporter as newsletter subscribers. Thank you and welcome!

Moving forward, though I love focusing on the writing, I also have to zero in on the money side of things. We find ourselves in the fourth quarter of the year, a time when every financial contribution really helps to keep Omni Reporter going on a regular basis. And so, if you enjoy this service, and haven’t given a contribution before, I invite you to consider contributing in whatever amount works best for you. This is a reader-supported venture, and further contributions will help Omni continue, bringing further uplifting and informative content to even more people. 

Thank you all for your heartfelt support for Omni Reporter, the sincere encouragement you share, and the spirit of community you bring. Your support is greatly appreciated.
