I believe a happy life begins with learning to enjoy your own company. Because when you can be happy on your own, you can do anything.

A Merry Loner’s newsletter gives you ideas to make your own company (and your life) more enjoyable.

Hello, I'm Merry.

I write A Merry Loner to grapple with the question that troubles us all: how to live a meaningful, enjoyable life?

Together, we’ll explore how to:

🌻 Build self-confidence and let go of the need for approval (which we all know is easier said than done)

🌻 Be well read even as the screen constantly distracts us and there never seems to be enough time to dedicate to books

🌻 Live a life offline despite the noise and pressure to digitize (and now automate) everything

🌻 Explore the world without waiting for someone else to join us

🌻 Fight the temptation to constantly buy more and stop believing that everything will magically fall into place if we just get this one more thing.

Why subscribe?

A Merry Loner is a space to learn how to enjoy your own company and make life less scary and more exciting. 

No ads. No finicky algorithms. No rage bait. 

Just an occasional email with ponderings on life and how each of us can make our own more enjoyable. (Here’s an example.)
