What makes a good letter

  • An observation that starts a conversation.
  • A problem you are working on that may interest others.
  • A model or perspective that helped you in a specific situation.
  • A well-considered response to a previous letter.

The participation contract

1 letter and 2 thoughtful responses required each cycle with a 14-day grace period.

  • Members who fall short of the cycle requirements receive reminders, then a grace window, and are then removed to make room for active voices.
  • Removal is not punitive: removed members can be re-invited any time, and re-entry starts with a fresh letter.
  • Inviting people you respect is part of membership — a circle only survives when members keep bringing in strong new voices.
