Well, this is a nice surprise. I was just having a conversation about how burned out I am on all of the kicking and screaming on most social media and mourning the loss of the kind of internet I grew up with, when all of a sudden all of these friendly emails, many accompanied by familiar names, started coming in.
I’m @josephrooks everywhere. I’ve been writing for a living for 11 years now, usually with agencies that bring me in to help with copy for UX/web design projects. I dropped out of Virginia Tech to have a nervous breakdown not long after the shooting and decided to become a writer on a whim after just one writing class, and it actually worked out somehow.
I daydream about starting an Olde Internet Reenactment Society sometimes. I’m happy to see people carving out space for a little bit of sanity in my inbox, it’s the nicest thing in there in a long while.
