❝A writer is someone for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.❞
— Thomas Mann
Salût! I’m Jack — an ink-stained wretch living and working on a small island in Penobscot Bay. I write essays, articles, stories, and feuilletons to better understand the world to make meaning as a last-ditch effort against entropy.

Please have a look around the site — you can browse my clips, read more about my work or leave me a message.
