My name’s Richard. I live in Sydney, on the traditional land of Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. Here I write about writing and reading (and what I do when I'm not writing or reading). I'm writing slowly but may at some point speed up. Connect with me on micro.blog or at Mastodon @aus.social@writingslowly. On Reddit, I'm @atomicnotes.
Some books on writing:
Hidalgo, César A. 2025. Infinite Alphabet: and The Laws Of Knowledge. Allen lane.
Fletcher, Angus. 2022. WonderWorks: Literary Invention and the Science of Stories. London: Swift Press.
Smith, Emma. 2023. Portable Magic: A History of Books and Their Readers. Penguin Books.
