Welcome to Deadmedia: updates on my works-in-progress, news about The Quiet is Loud, thoughts on creativity, the odd poem-ish thing, what I’m reading, and not-boring (🤞🏼) life snippets.
An internet dinosaur who’s been writing online since 1997, I’m basically always trying to re-create the community atmosphere of Livejournal as best I can.
Oh, and the name reflects that too. This newsletter was formerly called “I Can Barely Play This Thing” but at the end of 2023 I felt it was time for a change - deadmedia was the name of an old Livejournal and domain of mine from the early 2000s. It felt right to go back to basics in this way. Despite how it has the word “dead” in the name, to me it’s hopeful. It symbolizes the joy of creativity and connection I used to have - still do have. So I’m using the name again with thanks to that long-ago version of me, gone but definitely not forgotten.
Here’s to staying weird, the joys of the unpolished life, and curiosity above all.
I will aim to send a newsletter on the 15th of each month. I hope you’ll join me!
