Hello
Here are some things to know about me:
I write nerdy notes on cinema.
I may write about something you already know but have never quite been able to put into words. I like it when people tell me that.
I read a lot. Subscribe long enough, and you'll get familiar with hundreds of film books, spanning film art, craft, history, and more. That's pretty cool.
I try to publish every other Tuesday. Occasionally, I fail. Sorry about that.
If you like me, you can send me money.
In my other life, I’m writing a book. It is not film-related. But also it kind of is. I’ll tell you about it later.
