Writing Matters…
Hi, my name is Katy and ever since I was little, I have loved to write. Whether it be songs, stories, blog posts, articles or even university essays, writing has always been a beloved hobby of mine. I hope to now take it a step further by pursuing a career around writing - although which exact path I want to go down is still unclear to me. However, what I do know is that now more than ever, writing from the heart is increasingly important. Especially in the dawn of new technology such as artificial intelligence.
I am also a firm believer in the fundamental role long-form content plays in our media diet. As TikTok and Instagram reels slowly take over, I hope this blog can be a way to indulge in some longer written pieces. And more than anything, to behave as a slight breather from the never-ending social media stream we all seem to be sailing down at the moment.
For now, this is an entirely creative outlet, with the goal to post once a week, writing about whatever is on my mind. All with the general aim of creating an extensive portfolio of work. I hope you can find something here that sparks your interest, and of course any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
Katy’s Current Read…
Travels with Herodotus is the fascinating memoir of travel reporter Ryszard Kapuśiński. As the world slowly re-opened post Iron Curtain, this book details a thought provoking exploration of globalism, cross-cultural understanding and eurocentrism.
