So my friend texted me tonight, “didn’t you used to have a Substack?” and uh…. Right. That. Is a thing. That exists.I usually try to do thoughtful, well-organized Substack posts with a clear purpose. I don’t remember the last time my brain felt well-organized, but the point of this Substack is to share… something? So here’s me sharing what it looks like when I just kinda wing a Substack post instead of spending weeks planning and revising.General updatesThe past few weeks have been a wild time.
