Wrapping up the year now, I've worked on numerous things throughout Ghost's product, from small bug fixes and quality of life improvements to a new publishing flow and support for custom fonts. Currently, I'm following a course to learn (properly) React.


Fridays are still dedicated to personal creative work. Together with my friend Iris, I released a magazine called TRANSCRIPT. Our first issue sold out over the summer, and issue two will arrive any minute. We've doubled the number of copies this time around, too, and will be trying to sell all 200.

I still send out my monthly newsletter, Trema, in which I write one very brief book recommendation per month. I am reading roughly three to four books per month (currently at 39 for the year).


In parallel, I am designing and building my own Ghost theme. More on that soon!

The /now page was an idea by Derek Sivers. Read more about it at Nownownow.

One year in, I have found my feet working with Ghost, where I design and build tools for writers, journalists and publishers. Fridays are for personal creative work.
