Um, what kinds of things do you want to read about? (Completely serious question. Honest.)

I like to read about new ideas, advances in science and technology, and political developments, especially where the Internet is concerned. I accept that people have different lifestyles and viewpoints, and if variations on those sorts of things are presented as "hey, here's a different way to live", then that's alright. On the other hand, if the message is "hey, do it this way because I'm right" then I'm inclined to stop reading.

Thanks. I like to write about personal hacks -- debugging the wetware, fixing health issues at their roots that doctors claim cannot be fixed, effective parenting for challenging children. So you are probably not my target audience. Trying to think such things through for myself, I guess. I agree with your distaste for what amounts to lecturing. I have a half formed thought for a piece about that which might get written, or at leasted started, today.

Thank you for the feedback.

My fear would be that he wants to read things that validate what ever it is he feels criticised about.

For example, people who smoke get irritated by being constantly told not to. Non smokers, of course, take no notice.
