Questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The Sunday Letter is free and always will be. It is supported by a small number of clearly labeled sponsors.
How often will you email me?
Once a week, on Sunday morning. Occasionally we send a short note about a reader event, and you can turn those off.
Can I read it on my phone or tablet?
Yes. The letter is designed with large text and big buttons, and it looks good on any screen.
How do I unsubscribe?
Every issue has an unsubscribe link at the bottom. One click and you are off the list, no questions asked.
Our privacy promise
Your email address is used for the Sunday Letter and nothing else. We never sell, rent or share it.
