I am not good at details. I like them to take care of themselves. And sometimes they do. Details, when we have a chance to look, get bigger with examination. Flaws become information. Overlooked details morph into mistakes. Some details get bigger and make other details smaller. The liner notes can be lyrics. That's the thing about details.
Since 2020, I have written the following: -grandiose grocery lists (written on an empty stomach) that often end up getlting left behind at home -funding proposals -delicately worded emails -harried Whatsapp messages -a slew of facebook messages (that basically kept me alive) -a tinder profile or two... -utilitarian text messages -heart felt text messages -the very occasional love note (on paper) to a friend or a loved one The things I have not written since 2020: -a journal -a multi-page handwritten letter -a play -a sketch -a novel -more than 2-3 blog posts that I didn't even publish -a pros and cons list
