it’s time to Read Write Own

It’s time to Read Write Own on iridescent wave, and we’re doing it on our BRAND NEW web3 blog home on Paragraph! Click here to jump over there to read this post. This IS going to be a subscriber-only party, but it’s free! We just need that e-mail of yours!… That glorious e-mail addy!


Of course I considered hosting iridescent wave on a web3 writing platform back in 2021 when I first started the blog, but I ultimately went for something more internet-in-general-friendly. Now, I finally have my reason to get on here. Thanks for the nudge, Charisse! 🙂

Welcome to iridescent wave’s new web3 arm (don’t worry — iridescentwave.co isn’t going anywhere — we’re just expanding!), where you’ll find EXCLUSIVEEE subscriber-only content! And it’s free. You just need to subscribe! With intention and respect for your time first, I think it’ll be worth your while. We gotta grow this thing, and building a subscriber list is an imperative part of that process.

In fact, establishing that direct relationship to your audience is one of the main takeaways most will get from Part 1 of the hottest web3 book out right now, Read Write Own by Chris Dixon. What a great segue to introduce the first series of exclusive, subscriber-only writings you’ll be seeing from iridescent wave!: my personal insights and observations on this book.

Read Write Own book
a book

This book has given me the first spark of inspiration and hope for web3 the tech, web3 the future, that I haven’t felt since my early days of diving into this space. So as I read this book, I’m taking notes, I’m applying what I’m learning to my own life as an artist, and I’m sharing it with you.

Don’t have the book? Not a musician? No problem! I’ll be writing these deep dives as recaps for anyone interested in web3 period while adding some music-specific, personal commentary. Think spark notes with a side of i-wave authenticity & honesty.

If you’re looking to deepen your understanding of the blockchain, make some big web3-informed moves, and GET INSPIRED AGAIN, join me! And I hope to see you in the comments, too! Let’s talk about it.
