Wanted to put this one together before Easter food craziness starts - I believe Paragraph is too silent and needs to clarify what they stand for. Thanks @reidtandy and @danicaswanson for inspiration throughout this week's convos here. Also, it's the opinion you didn't ask for @colin - but written with love for Paragraph! 😍 https://paragraph.com/@buildbetter/web3-wont-save-writers-paragraph-might

"You don’t write on Paragraph to grow fast. You write here to write forever. To find your people. To own your work. To publish for the long game." Nailed it. Instant sell. That value prop is precisely what I've been hoping for ever since I first joined Paragraph. In fact I thought this was the direction they were headed at the time, and it's one of the reasons I was so excited when I first joined (Jan 2023). Writers who publish occasionally, or at least on a slower cadence than the Substack norm, have been ignored. I'd be delighted to see Paragraph nail this market. There's potential for compounding value there. Like many literary nerds I appreciate Stripe Press, so I was basically looking for the seeds of what might eventually become Paragraph Press -- a fully composable open publishing layer, with onchain proof of origin plus customizable monetization options only possible in crypto.

Excellent points and well explained! I agree that the provenance and ownership is truly the novel concept. The composability and BD for distribution angle really hits.

great article! It made me think of the possibility of working with independent publishers more aligned to the ethos of Web3. AK Press came to mind. Writers of books in the realm of anarchism and decentralization might find much use in a platform like paragraph for smaller publications/articles re: digital permanence.
