A list of experiences, activities, and moments that I would like to happen, so that I could have the privilege of calling them memories and not wishes –

  • See God

  • Enjoy a perfect cup of coffee

  • Watch the sun rise from the peak of a mountain top

  • Become the owner of land in the middle of nowhere

  • Build a workspace on said land

  • Cliff dive from a ledge higher than 50 feet

  • Run a marathon

  • Give someone a large sum of money anonymously

  • Raise a child

  • Help design a building

  • Write a letter on a piece of paper with no mistakes, no smudges, no errors. Everything is symmetrical and without flaw.

  • Sit in a misty field and listen to ‘Hiders’ by Burial

  • Get rid of my smart phone for (at least) 1 year

  • Publish a book of any kind

  • Raise another child

  • Buy a car for a loved one

  • Learn how to make the perfect pasta

About

The Newsletter is a publication intended to inform and encourage deeper thought surrounding art, design, creativity, and day-to-day life. Written for (eventual) physical publishing in real time with weekly/bi-weekly installments.

It also allows me space to create something regularly without straining any creative muscle like a larger project normally would.

It serves everyone equally. It serves you images, thoughts, and information. It serves me a deadline and a creative outlet. And it serves your inbox another item to sort. The Newsletter is weekly and biweekly depending on what my schedule looks like.
