Why I'm starting this again

10 Jul 2026  ·  #meta

I've tried to keep a blog three separate times before this. Each one died the same way: I'd write something I thought needed to be good, feel the pressure of that, and then stop writing entirely for six months.

This time the goal is lower stakes on purpose. The books section isn't book reviews — it's just an honest log, including the ones I quit halfway through. The rest of this is whatever I happen to be building or thinking about that week.
