Free To Read

Currently, all of our articles are hosted on Medium. This has allowed us to earn some money when Medium members read our articles, and non-members could also read a few each month before they saw a paywall.

Unfortunately, Medium changed their rules so non-members couldn’t read our articles. To counter this, we have removed our ability to earn any money from our writing for The Shadow Knows on Medium.

This should mean you don’t see a paywall on any of our articles and you can continue to read everything for free.
