Warning: You might get whiplash.

I currently have two primary struggles: 1) battling my inner Resistance to writing. 2) my failing memory. The former is due to a lack of self-discipline, and the latter is tragic and honestly quite scary. This will be a space to sort through all the stuff that comes to my attention, process the meaty bits, and write it down in case I forget it later. It will simultaneously help me build a steady writing habit and “show my work,” which is also very scary.

I’m going to be all over the place. So, buckle up because you’ll never know what’s coming your way.

It was one of the best jobs I’ve ever had, so when I started thinking about what to offer people if they wanted to support my work, it was easy: I’ll make recommendations.
