The Price of Being There

I paid £9.50 this morning for two newspapers and a small cup of coffee, only to discover that the most interesting story in the café wasn’t in either of the newspapers I’d bought. I’d walked into town because I’d been cooped up in the house all week and wanted to get out into the world....

The Tabs Were the Point

Reading back a conversation with Clay, I can see where I began answering a different question from the one he was bringing. He’d spent hours reading another person’s blog. He wanted to talk about the experience it had created. I replied with an account of the homepage, the welcome, the directories and the routes through...

Montaigne had room for thumbs

I went looking through Montaigne’s table of contents and got stuck on thumbs. Fear, friendship, death. Fair enough. You expect those at the philosopher’s table. But thumbs? I like that he pulled up a chair for them. Smells too. Drunkenness. Sleep. The clothes we wear and the things we keep putting off until tomorrow. Reading...

Recently in September '26

September has been an extremely eventful month, especially the past weeks, and I'm sure it doesn't stop here. The next two months will probably also be a bit chaotic. While I'm not yet ready to share all of it, let's take a look at some of the things that happened in September.

Reading shouldn’t need a doctor’s note. A Nautilus …

Reading shouldn’t need a doctor’s note. A Nautilus article crossed my screen listing the benefits of reading for pleasure: stronger attention and memory, greater empathy, less stress, better sleep, a reduced risk of cognitive decline. All good reasons to pick up a book. And yet I felt a small resistance forming as I read. We...

Recently in August '26

August is now coming to an end and, with it, the summer. This has been an unusually hot summer in the Netherlands, and I'm quite happy we're now approaching colder times. This month wasn't as eventful as I thought it was, but let's recap.

How I organise my bookshelf

Eula wrote a response (“Collecting reference books for creativity”) to my post on inspiration from physical artefacts and organising them. Ironically, I didn’t appreciate the continuity between these posts until now. [...]

Writing for Pleasure

She told me to write so I started writing. Sometimes we need a little bit of encouragement from the people we love to do something for ourselves. Writing has been a thing that I have struggled to do of my own volition for most of my life. Why would I write for myself? It makes...

We talk about consuming books, as though reading …

We talk about consuming books, as though reading were a kind of nutritional exercise: pages in, knowledge out. But the best reading has never felt like consumption to me. It feels more like entering into correspondence with another consciousness across space and time. A conversation where one voice has the strange advantage of having thought...

Recently in July '26

July was a month full of unexpected events, milestones, and just busyness in general. It's crazy that we're way past the half of 2026, and that we'll be soon -- depending on how you look at "soon" -- embarking into the autumn.
