iv.  A longer arrangement

The Year.

Four conversations across twelve months. First-reads of what I am writing before it goes out. A small amount of quarterly correspondence. The thing other shapes do not give you: a question that compounds.

What it is

  • Four 90-minute conversations across the year, scheduled together at the start. A length reserved for The Year; longer than Office Hours or Deep Dive in the standard ladder.
  • First-reads of essays and book chapters in motion. UNDISTORTED and Say It For Me are the two long projects. You see drafts before anyone else does.
  • A small amount of asynchronous correspondence between the four conversations. Not on demand; on the order of a thoughtful exchange per quarter.

What it is not

  • Not a retainer. Not on-demand. Not a lawyer-on-call relationship. Conversations are scheduled together at the start; there is no provision for unscheduled calls or urgent intervention. The Written Opinion route is separate.
  • Not a coaching package. Not a mentorship. Not therapy.
  • Not a status object. If the appeal is that it sounds like a status object, the application will fail.
