I’m from Seattle, now I live in Berlin.
Sometimes I write essays:
An Open Letter to the Girl I Pretended To Have a Crush On in Eighth Grade
How to Reduce Corruption—And Lose an Election
Homies: What Happened to Everyone I Went to Middle School With?
How to Become a Gay Prostitute in Denmark
The 10 Times I Met My Landlord
I’m on Facebook and Twitter. Sometimes I write for The Billfold.

Yes, finally I can comment on your blog! I’ve been reading it for a while now and have shared quite a few of your stories, I always find them well thought-out and provide viewpoints I hadn’t thought about. I’m quite a fan, so keep up the good work
Love yer work, as always. Welcome to WordPress!
I just discovered your blog today on Google, searching for “the dark side of the fifties”, as I’ve been wondering what all the appeal is about the era. It’s all so stereotypical…like watching re-runs of the same episode of Happy Days or something of the likes. Anyhow, I become increasingly fascinated both by your style of writing, and, obviously, the topics. First off, Germany! That’s so cool! I’ve been becoming more of a Germany fanatic recently, not so much as the Soviet Union and Russia, but Germany nevertheless. Anyhow, yes. I suppose I sound a bit obsessive, but your blog, it’s good readin’.
wonderful blog. Glad I found you. Humor and beauty. Self deprecation and affection. Very nice.
Hysterically funny! Love it! I’m calling Lake Union Air right now for a pepperoni pizza!
Winning.
Meget sjovt…!
Your blog is thoughtful and interesting. And sarcastic as shit. You must come from an amazing city.
Awesome photo (and other!) essays. You are an exceptional story teller. Would you email me? Galen at estately.com?
Welcome to 30 (and welcome back to Seattle?).
