Welcome, reader.

That’s the part of my website where my written things live.

It’s a place I write down things I can’t stop thinking about so that I can stop thinking about them and can think about something else.

I began writing regularly since 2007, when I started my career.

  • Peoples of the internet call this type of sites blogs.
    • Each article is usually a blog post, or just a post.
    • And the writing process is called blogging.
  • As I try to make my every post a finished polished story, I call them posts, stories.
    • The most recent ones are listed below.
  • I have other blogs too.

Also, check out these sections:

  • Series are form of long-form content that outgrew the size of a post.
  • Each story has it’s set of tags, they’re topics.

Have a good time!
