We appreciate you!!

Our annual Month of Giving request

Dear Substack Readers,

It is hard to believe that Garrison retired from A Prairie Home Companion radio broadcasts seven years ago, in 2016. He certainly has made great use of the extra time — among other things, publishing six books (Living with Limericks; Lake Wobegon Virus; That Time of Year: A Minnesota Life; Boom Town; Serenity at 70, Gaiety at 80; and Cheerfulness) and making more than 130 appearances, including ten A Prairie Home Companion performances (with ten more to come).

Two and a half years ago, we began our relationship with Substack, a newsletter platform, where Garrison can write directly to you and share new ideas and events. We also dug into our archive, keeping the legacy of The Writer’s Almanac and A Prairie Home Companion alive.

It is because of your financial support that we are able to keep the train on the tracks. During this month of giving, we come to you again asking if you would consider supporting us for another year.
If that is of interest, we have a few options for you:

1) Send a check to: Prairie Home Productions, P.O. 2090, Minneapolis, MN 55402
2) Make a donation through our shop (Click for options)
3) Become a paid subscriber to one of our newsletters:
*The Writer’s Almanac Anniversary Newsletter. Paid subscribers receive additional newsletters — up to ten per month — featuring one literary figure whose birthday is celebrated on that day. The bonus TWA newsletter also include a video of a reading of one of their poems or works. And there’s a discount in the store.
