My last article, published March 26, 2026, was all about WWDC. That’s fine. That’s what the newsletter has become, mostly. I find in the blog world I mostly write about tech, and I’m good at it, and it gets reads. But there’s more to me than being a tech blogger. There always has been.

I’ve self-published an obscure novel in my early thirties and then could never get myself to complete another. The novel is called Living on Empty, and I’m proud of it, even if almost nobody read it. At this point, I probably have several unfinished novels sitting in various states of decay across hard drives and cloud folders. Half-finished worlds with characters who stopped talking to me because I stopped showing up.

I am a writer. I will always be a writer. I’ve been writing since as long as I can remember. That’s not something I say to sound romantic about it. It’s just a fact about how I’m wired.
