About

Hi, I'm Chris - nice to meet you.

The main goal of the posts and stories on this site is to get better at writing. It is something that I wanted to improve for a long time. Well written books and articles are something beautiful and powerful.

Writing is perhaps the greatest of human inventions. Carl Sagan (The Persistence of Memory, 43:05)

The second reason is, that I think a lot about all different kind of things and wanted a place to store those thoughts. This helps me to reflect further on them. And to explore other views, I do like to change the perspective to see where they lead.

For those of you curious about the name of this site.. it is coming from a quote of John Muir.

Writing is like the life of a glacier - one eternal grind. John Muir (from Ken Burn's "National Parks", Episode 1)
