hello friends, i know some of you may be thinking, “here we go again, he’s starting another blog that he will eventually abandon,” and others might be surprised to learn that this isn’t my first blog. if you’re in the latter category, it’s likely that was intentional.

you see, i used to either write in anonymity or under a pseudonym. i used to tell myself that writing in anonymity took away the pressure of suceeding. but over this past year, i’ve been doing a lot of self development and growth, and i began to realise that there was a second part to it, that i was hiding part of myself from the world. so in the interest of living in alignment with myself and embracing my full potential, i’ve decided to do away with all of my old blogs and write under my name.

for those of you that don’t know, i also recently set a goal of publishing a book of poetry for my 30th birthday. in preparation for that, you may see some of my posts from previous blogs resurface either edited, or reworked entirely. i don’t have many other details right now, but i’ll update in the future.

regardless of how you got here, welcome. thank you for reading my work, and i hope you enjoy it. -ekiyoshi
