From the Hollow
Where the work begins before it becomes finished.
This blog is an ongoing record of the ideas, rituals, and obsessions that shape my art and writing — from ancient festivals and folklore to private process notes and unfinished thoughts.
Public posts mark the surface.
Members-only entries descend deeper into The Hollow where the raw, unpolished work lives.
Read as much or as little as you like. Not everything here is meant to be seen all at once.
