Who are you?

Hi! I’m Kirk Hamilton. I’m a writer, musician, and podcaster. I host the music podcast Strong Songs and co-host and produce the video game podcast Triple Click. You can find out more about me at my website, and I’m also on Bluesky and Instagram.

I was a full-time writer and editor for the bulk of the 2010s. These days I spend my time making music and podcasts, but I still like having a low-key outlet for writing, which is where this newsletter comes in.

What is this newsletter?

“Kirk’s Notes” is my newsletter, which I currently send out every week or two. Issues vary in content, from short essays, to updates and additional thoughts on my various creative projects, to who knows what else. I also publish a monthly(ish) collection of music recommendations.

Can I support your work?

If you’d like to support the ongoing creation of this newsletter, the best way to do that is to make a donation. You can also go support Strong Songs on Patreon.

And if I can’t make a donation?

Share posts with people you think might like it, I guess? Honestly, I’m just happy that you’re out there reading. Thanks for being here.
