A Website Is Allowed to Be a Place

I want a personal website that gives you a reason to wander around.

I want a personal website that gives you a reason to wander around.

Read a post. Look at the expressions. Hover over something that looks suspicious. Find a detail that clearly took longer to build than anyone could reasonably justify.

There's still a practical obligation underneath all of that. The text needs to be readable. Links need to work. You should be able to get back to where you started without filing a missing-person report.

But a personal site can have corners. It can reveal something about its owner through the way it behaves, rather than asking an About paragraph to carry the entire burden.

This one has a fan.

I'm aware that raises further questions.
