About me
This site exists because I needed somewhere to put my thoughts. One day I realized that reading without writing about it felt incomplete, and as a person who best learns by writing, I'd like to share my notes with whoever might be interested. Here you'll find my analyses, reflections, any thoughts that jump out of me during reading, and the occasional essay about whatever is preoccupying me at the time. I'm particularly drawn to 20th century literature, though my reading list covers a lot. Outside of reading, I draw and write creatively, and occassionaly dip my toes in music making (which you can listen to here).
