New piece coming on Friday.
It's autofiction, and I’ve chosen not to pitch it anywhere. For work like this, the process of summarising, justifying, negotiating edits & tone often asks for distance and translation. Publishing it myself allows the piece to remain intact, and me to remain whole.
Subscribers will receive a link with context, rather than the full text in their inbox. It should be encountered by choice, not by surprise. Read when you’re resourced.
