Welcome to Saran Wrapped Letters!

Here is a mini FAQ to get us started:

Who is writing Saran Wrapped Letters?

Hi! My name is Saran. I’m a writer and editor based in Toronto, Canada.

(Just in case you are wondering: no, I was not named after the Saran Wrap.)

My name Saran is a Mongolian name that means moon. The newsletter name is simply a pun.

What is Saran Wrapped Letters all about?

The official tagline for this newsletter is: Food for thought with a side dish of delight. (Because food can be Saran Wrapped, get it? :D)

This year I’m doing a special project in celebration of the 100th anniversary of The New Yorker.

This is My Year With The New Yorker.

For Saran Wrapped Letters in 2025, It is all about The New Yorker all day, every day, all year, this year!

This newsletter is running on a monthly basis, and every month in 2025, a new post will go out that will be related to The New Yorker in some way, shape or form.

Join me in a year-long celebration of The New Yorker by subscribing for free.

If you feel like it, you can tell a few friends too. This is a free newsletter.

Editorial note: There may be inconsistency in spelling between American and Canadian. My undergraduate education is American and my current country of residence is Canada—so I sometimes mix my spelling between the two. Your understanding and patience is appreciated.

I’m a writer doing a fun project celebrating my favourite magazine.

Let’s celebrate! celebrate! celebrate!
