Hello, and thanks for subscribing.
This is the bit where I’m meant to tell you what you’ve signed up for, in a confident voice that suggests I’ve planned all of this.
I haven’t.
What I do, roughly once a week, is write about small things. A drawer that won’t organise itself. A pair of reading glasses I can’t find. A password the computer claims it doesn’t know but knows well enough to reject. Systems I’ve made peace with even though they don’t work. Decisions I keep deferring. Objects I keep for reasons I can’t quite explain.
The pieces are usually 500 or 600 words. They go out on Mondays. They’re observational rather than instructive. I’m not going to tell you how to live. I’m going to tell you about the screw in our kitchen drawer that’s been there for fifteen years, and you can decide for yourself what that’s about.
If any of that sounds like your kind of thing, you’re in the right place.
If you want somewhere to start, this one is probably the best introduction: I Have Learned Not To Question The Pillows [link]
Thanks for being here.
Brad
