Dear Reader,
I don’t know how you found this, but thank you for opening it.
This isn’t a newsletter full of hot takes or productivity tips.
This is just me — writing from the edges of myself.
I call it Letters from the Void because most days, I feel like I’m shouting into one.
But today, you heard me whisper— somehow you heard me from across the void.
That means something.
I started this blog 3 months ago from a warehouse floor, just trying to stay sane.
No one knew how loud it got in my head. No one asked.
So I wrote instead.
Now, 57 articles deep, I still don’t know what I’m doing. I’m not trying to become a brand.
I’m not an expert in anything except being angry, numb, human, confused, and curious.
I just needed somewhere for my thoughts to go with the weight I carry.
And somehow, writing turned that weight into words.
Lately I’ve been listening to songs on repeat:
- Monster and Legendary from Epic: The Musical
- Parle à ta tête by Indila — a French artist whose voice speaks to the lonely part of me even though I don’t know French
There’s something about music that understands me before I understand myself.
Do you ever feel that way?
I don’t know what these letters will become yet.
Maybe just notes I couldn’t say out loud.
Maybe a lifeline.
Maybe just proof I was here.
If you stick around, I’ll send these as often as I can — not on a schedule though, just when something inside needs to be said.
In the meantime, I hope this lands gently wherever you are.
And if you’ve ever felt like a ghost in your own life… same.
But today, we’re still here.
Thanks for reading this far into the void.

The burden is still heavy. But maybe we can carry it together.
What post of mine stuck with you—and why?”
“What would you want to see more of?”
“Would you support this space if I offered a way to?”
