The featured article this week questions whether newsletters are a new literary genre. It's definitely a unique delivery format without the constraints of traditional online media. There's less pressure for clickbait and spammy ads. But literary genre? I'm not sure about that. It's an interesting read about the landscape though.

Plus featured newsletters that cover travel tips, investing, fantasy football, advice for founders, and more.
