I recently started it again, mainly by pulling out old stuff that has not been published or elsewhere (I wrote columns for several magazines – German and/or English – for many years and some of those pieces survived the years in the darkness of printed magazines on my shelves). You’ll get proper credit, of course, and I’m also thinking of moving some of my writings to Substack. I may even translate your piece into German as I’d like to keep it bi-lingual.
Whatcha think?
Best from Berlin (I just got the Gutenberg Prize, a big thing over here, and the laudator said quite a few things that you also touched on. So there must be some truth in them.
Hit send too soon on the last—let me know if there’s anything you need from me! I am happy to email you a raw text or .md version of the article as well so you don’t have to grab it in pieces out of substack. I’ll shoot an email later today. Cheers!
Erik—congrats on the Gutenberg Prize! that’s incredible. I actually heard the news from your colleagues at DDX in New York (will be publishing on that in the coming week or two).
I would love for you to republish the article. And to attempt to read it in German! (which i cannot do, sadly).
Marcel:
could I re-publish this article (with very few smoothings) on my blog/page/site https://www.spiekileaks.com/about ?
