What’s the point of reading and thinking if you aren’t going to talk and write?

The essays on this site are crystallised forms of things that were on my mind; a product of reading and current affairs. They’re meant to be an eclectic mix: I like bringing ideas together in unexpected ways, and hopefully the combination is original and stimulating.

I wrote the essays for me; it’s as much about me practicing my own writing, getting my thoughts onto paper, as it is about anybody reading them.
