Starting this, in public

#meta#first post

I build things for a living and mostly show people the finished drawing set — never the eleven versions before it that were wrong in some quiet way. This is an attempt to show a bit more of the process, not just at the office but everywhere else too: the gym, the sketchbook, whatever new routine I’m currently failing to stick to.

The rule I’m giving myself is simple, borrowed from watching other people do this well: post the thing that isn’t finished yet. Not a highlight reel, not a “here’s what I learned after five years” retrospective. Just the entry from today.

Three kinds of posts will show up here, and I’m tagging them so it’s easy to skip around:

  • training — barbell work, what’s going up, what’s stalling, and why
  • building — architecture, side projects, this site itself
  • journal — everything else that doesn’t fit neatly in a category, which is most of it

No fixed schedule. The only commitment is that whatever gets written here gets written honestly, including the parts that are still in progress.
