About Derek Leif
Derek Leif devotes his life to finding things that grab his attention. You know...stuff that makes him say either "then what" if it's a story, or "what else," if it's non fiction.
When he's not doing that, he creates things that he hopes do the same for others.
You can write him at [email protected], by the way. He'll write back, at least until he becomes famous, and starts receiving so many emails that he has no time to answer them.

About Supporting Derek Leif
Derek's delusional plan is to support himself solely by encouraging others to send him a dollar (or more) via Venmo (@derekleif).
Then he can spend the rest of his life listening to works, reading words, thinking about words, composing words, speaking words, singing words, and playing his ukulele. He'll also listen to things (sounds, music and words), and look at things (images, words, and symbols).
When he's not doing that, he'll use his other senses, be mindful, and move around some.
That about covers it.

In other words: use it, distribute it, make money off of it...just say, somewhere, that you used Derek Leif's stuff, and that you send him much love.
Just consider Venmoing a buck or more to @derekleif.
May joy and many ideas bloom as if that kid actually planted some of The Giving Tree's seeds, carefully trimmed its many branches, and made all he needed out of that renewable resource.
