HeyJaredA N A M N E S I S
I write to remember. I write to think - quietly, slowly, and in public. In a noisy world, these are slow thoughts - on memory, meaning, and the beautiful chaos of being alive. Come for calm and stay for deep.

Girls, What It Really Means to Be a Witch ? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have not graduated from any witch school, I do not fly to midnight witch gatherings, and on top of that I live in a region where people were once burned for such things, so I still have a certain respect for the word. But perhaps until now I have simply misunderstood what a witch really is.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!MSEb!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2
War with the Robots (opens the original)
Read excerpt

An Encounter with a Vampire (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It began quite innocently. As a child, like so many others, I read Dracula by Bram Stoker. Vampires were not, of course, his invention, but it was his novel that turned them into creatures that would forever belong to our imagination. Fear, passion, mystery, old castles, night, and something nameless hiding in the dark.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!lmjd!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazo
The Woman Who Finally Lets Go (opens the original)
Read excerpt
You gave me the meeting with him as a farewell gift, as one last gift of love. And then you took him away again.<img alt="" class="sizing-normal" height="1086" src="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!uB-k!,w_1456,c_limit,f_auto,q_au
When Calm Feels Dangerous (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A few weeks ago, I left my job and discovered something unsettling. I missed the kind of work that never allowed me to rest - the endless stream of problems waiting to be solved. I realized that I needed pressure in order to feel alive. <
