I want this to be an informal/public notebook where I record thoughts that are too long for a non-premium Twitter account, notes on different things I’m reading, and maybe more formal writings as well. The target audience for this page is a mix of myself and current/potential friends.

Through this notebook, I hope to “produce” more and write better. For the longest time, I’ve been thinking my consuming to producing ratio has been higher than I would like, and hence I’m forcing myself to do more frequent, scrappy writeups (also Learning in Public). Also, friends have told me about how valuable writing well is yet I’ve never actually written much outside of school. Writing more, and in public, will hopefully speedrun me becoming a better writer (please give me feedback if you have any!).

This page will help existing friends get to know me better along with reaching others who share my interests and would be great friends. Perhaps some of them will come across this and decide to reach out! My thoughts might also be helpful/interesting to some.

All in all, this has been way overdue. I finally made this due to Jekyll being frictionless to set up, this post, feeling high-agency today, and resonating too much with this quote below from Rohan Selva-Radov.

In the past, I erred very strongly on the side of keeping my thoughts entirely to myself. Now I want to give the other extreme a go.
