Every writer faces the blank page with a mixture of excitement and dread. The cursor blinks, waiting. The possibilities feel infinite—which is precisely the problem.
Why Write?
Writing is thinking made visible. When I write, I discover what I actually believe, as opposed to what I think I believe. The act of putting words in sequence forces a precision that thought alone doesn’t require.
“I write entirely to find out what I’m thinking, what I’m looking at, what I see and what it means.” — Joan Didion
This space exists because some thoughts deserve more room than a conversation allows. They need to be turned over, examined from different angles, allowed to develop.
What to Expect
I’m drawn to questions that sit at the intersection of:
- Technology — how tools shape thought and society
- Philosophy — the fundamental questions that never quite get answered
- Design — the invisible structures that guide our experience
- Learning — how we come to understand anything at all
These categories will blur. Good ideas tend to escape their boxes.
A Note on Style
I aim for clarity over cleverness. If something seems simple, that’s intentional—complexity often masks confusion. The goal is to write the kind of thing I’d want to read: substantive but not dense, careful but not cautious.
More to come. For now, this serves as a marker: we begin here.
