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.

Replying to: @Marty

@Marty thanks – you have reminded me of the prehistory of the ‘pile of index cards’ and the mid-century Japanese obsession with note-making. I’m inspired to write something about this.
