Welcome back, here’s what I’ve got for you this week…

Minimal Note-Taking book pre-orders (next weekend!)

You’ve got a video to watch about the book pre-launch now, if you’ve not seen it already…

It goes over the main questions that surround the Minimal Note-Taking: A Guide to Simplicity in a Distracted World book that I’m going to complete and publish over the first half of 2026.

One more thing - if you read this in the next 12 hours of sending, we’ve got a live Q&A session in the PARAZETTEL Community where you can join me to hear some of the finer details about book & launch.

If you don’t want to be there live, and don’t want to join the community, you can also leave a question on this form, and wait for me to publish the recording of the live session (it’ll come in your emails early next week).


Travelling in Macau, Hong Kong and China

This little section is more personal - I’ve written a little recount of my last fortnight that I spent in these places.

If you want to read it, you can go to my website and see it at the link…

Visiting China, Hong Kong and Macau

There are some of my insights, what I liked and disliked, and some of the unique parts of travelling here, especially in China.

As well as this, check out the new ‘Photos’ gallery on the website. Before today, I maintained a completely separate portfolio, but I thought to streamline things and finished the entirety of the work in two hours of frenzied vibe-coding before writing this.

There’ll be more emails from me soon about the book launch (seeing as it’s this week only), but after this, we will resume largely normal broadcasting, as I finalise the business structure and get ready for a 2026 of new ideas and content.

Thanks for reading, and let me know if you enjoyed the issue!
