Writing Slowly

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.

@drwalt Isn’t it yes and no, no and yes? A car is like a horse & carriage except it isn’t. An ebook is like a book, but not. Blogging is like 17th century pamphleteering but different. Just talking in a cafe like Sartre might still be the very first step to forming ideas? What do you think?
