HEY THERE
I think in lists, feel in paragraphs, print everything, and am genuinely allergic to small talk. You're in the right place.
I’m curious about almost everything. Business models. Road trips. Dog training. Planner layouts.
Why some ideas won’t leave us alone.
Ink & Agenda exists because I needed somewhere all of that could live without being filtered into a niche.
HOW DID I GET HERE...
Ink & Agenda started at a dinette table in a travel trailer with spotty cell service and zero Wi-Fi.
Which, honestly, was the point.
Before that: twenty years as a photographer. I loved it. I let it go. Somewhere in the middle of that transition I realized what I actually missed wasn't the camera — it was the creative outlet.
The blank page. The quiet promise of paper.
So I went back to pen and paper. First it was notebooks. Then an A5 ring planner. Then camping season hit, and I wanted printed directions and confirmation numbers I could see without waiting for a screen to load.
The first inserts were messy hand sketches that I refined once we got home. I didn't expect paper to change me. I thought it was temporary.
Three years later, I'm more content. My creativity is back. My screen time is down. And I have an opinion about planner ring sizes that I will absolutely share if you ask.
I'm not interested in algorithm-approved living.
Planning shouldn't feel like another thing you have to get right. Creativity shouldn't leave you exhausted. And productivity culture, as a concept, can take a long walk off a short pier.
I care more about curiosity than output. More about steady progress than performance metrics. More about building a life that feels real than one that photographs well.
Ink & Agenda moves a little slower on purpose. There's paper. There are lists and long paragraphs. There's room to figure things out without broadcasting every step.
I'd rather build something honest than perform for something hollow. And I'd rather you feel like yourself here than like you're behind.
Unhurried on purpose.
Ink in the margins.
A life that feels like mine.
