Sustain the Signal

Read this part first — the rest is optional.

FROM:R&R
TO:You, whoever found this page

Hey — first off, thank you for being here.

If you’ve made it this far, you’ve probably connected with something on this site. Maybe an album breakdown, a book review, a piece about a criminally underrated band you love. Whatever it was — thank you for reading it. Genuinely. That’s already the reason this thing exists.

Riffs & Reads is a one-person project. Just writing about music and books I care about, on a site I built and maintain in my spare time. It costs me a fair amount of time, the occasional album or book, and a little bit of hosting.

If you've gotten something out of the work here and you want to throw a small contribution my way, there's a Buy Me a Coffee link below. Anything helps — a one-time coffee, a recurring one, whatever feels right.

// Please read this partOnly do this if it’s well within your means. Seriously. Don’t put yourself under any kind of financial stress to support a music blog — not this one, not any one. If money is tight, or even if it isn’t now, donating to a blogger just doesn’t fit your budget right now, please don’t.

The most valuable thing anyone can give a project like this is honestly just their time and attention. If you’re reading, your time spent is very much appreciated.

Either way: I’m really glad you’re here.

With sincere thanks, — R&R
