Why I’m Writing

Some stories don’t arrive all at once. Often, they’ll come like dandelion fluff, floating in the air around us. Sometimes, a bit sticks to us like a wish and lingers…

Binary Born from Breath

I’ve been thinking a lot about dreams, divinity, and code—how ancient myths and modern theories seem to speak the same truth: Are we living in a dream… or is the dream…
