Hi First name / love, Happy late July! How are the long, sticky days of summer treating you?

⠀

Last week, I spent an afternoon on the phone with a dear friend I've known since high school. She's been one of my biggest cheerleaders for a decade, and she always reads my newsletters and checks in on what I write.

⠀

I started telling her about how busy my fall schedule was getting as I prepared for my book launch. And she interrupted me to ask… “Your book launch?? What book?!"

⠀

And in that moment, I realized that maybe I haven't told everyone on this list about my book yet… and I should correct that! 😇

This year, I've been writing a book called Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media. 

 

It's short, powerful manifesto that integrates everything I've learned about attention, algorithms, economics, and ecology while recording over 100 episodes of Off the Grid since 2022.

⠀

Here's the brief synopsis—

⠀

In a world full of distraction, how do we reclaim our fragmented attention to make the things we’re here to create?

⠀

Your Attention is Sacred Except on Social Media is a philosophical and spiritual manifesto for anyone who’s sick of liking, commenting, subscribing, or scrolling.

⠀

It's a rallying cry for artists, writers, teachers, healers, small business owners, and critical thinkers ready to break free from the attention economy and reclaim their creative integrity.

⠀

If you want to reclaim your fragmented attention, release any reasons you “should” be on social media, and reinvest in your life offline — read this book.

⠀

Inside, you'll find:

• An argument against the attention economy

• How to break up with “the algorithm”

• 5 Principles for cultivating your attention

• A step-by-step plan for leaving any social platform

• 100 Ways to share your work & life without social media

⠀

The book will be out this fall, and if you're interested in getting a copy, please join the book waitlist right here.

⠀

You'll get to see the book cover as soon as you join the list, and I'll send you a few emails in August and September — telling you more about the book, how you can support the launch, and ways to jump the line for a copy.

⠀

I'm also excited to share that I'll be hosting a 3-day virtual retreat to celebrate the launch! It'll be free for everyone who purchases the book. So mark your calendars for November 5 - 7 if you want to be part of the fun. 

⠀

Thanks for being here and reading this, First name / my friend. I'll write to you again soon. Until then, don't forget: your attention is sacred.

 

xoxo, Amelia
