I'm looking for reading similar to the nature of Howard Mark's memos, Ray Dalio's daily observations, or Warren Buffet's letter to shareholders. Who are some other notable names who have written consistently about the way they see the world, and where can I find what they've written?

Do you have Howard's books? A lot of oveap with the memos but still worth buying.

Take a look at Arlington Value Reports.
Good materials indeed OP - I get unique insights / perspectives from reading these.
The other materials I get inspiration / insight from would be Fear The Bulge's WSO posts
