The Examine is a reader-supported newsletter, which follows Seth Haines’ literary curiosity. Here, you’ll find creative non-fiction, fiction, and the occasional photograph. No topic is off limits. No subject exempt from examination. I’m here for all of it, and I hope you are too. Come along.

Why $ubscribe?

I’m grateful for those of you who subscribe to the free version, but if you throw down a few dollars each month, you get more. Subscribers have access to all my paid words, including the serial novel Bears in the Yard, my “Faith in Reverse” series, my craft series, and various short stories.

I’m looking for “1,000 True Fans,” as Kevin Kelly described it. Be one of those fans by subscribing. You know you want to.

Don’t Miss a Thing

Every new edition of the newsletter goes directly to your inbox. If you join the online community, you’ll have direct access to group chats and community message boards.
