Welcome to the Journal

A first note on why I'm writing this in public.

Hello, and thank you for coming.

This space is a journal more than a blog. Somewhere to think out loud about the books I’m working on, the ideas that won’t leave me alone, and the small miracles of the writing life — which is to say, the life. I’ll share drafts, half-formed thoughts, and the occasional finished thing.

If any of it resonates, I’d love to hear from you. Writing is a solitary act, but the reason for it is anything but.

— Dave
