Linkblog

I believe that one should control one’s writing and photographs, and this site is my home on the web for those things. I frequently post them other places too, but they generally start here. Other platforms are ephemeral—as evidenced by the many broken links here to things I found interesting in the past, but which weren’t cared for by their publisher—so I try not to post elsewhere, except as a copy.
