Work and life tends to get in the way. Truth be told my blogging career used to work around a website or portfolio refresh before looking for a new job but over the last 9 years I&#8217;ve been running my own creative studio, <a href=\"https:\/\/typeface.agency\/\">Typeface<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Good friend and fellow freelancing peer <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rhyswynne.co.uk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Rhys Wynne<\/a> has inspired me to stop complaining about how shit and impersonal the internet is these days and to do something about it, so here we are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ll be keeping most of my design-focused thoughts on the <a href=\"https:\/\/typeface.agency\/design-thought\/\">Typeface website<\/a> but many of my interests and hobbies cross over with my professional life so I&#8217;ll probably talk about the odd Typeface article in an informal way here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">It&#8217;s 2026 &#8230;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8230; And honestly, I&#8217;ve been fed up of social media for a couple of years now. As somebody who has been creating for, writing and posting on the web since the late 90s; I miss the days of RSS feeds, webrings, top 100 website lists and forums. Maybe it&#8217;s time to get some little pockets of human nonsense back online in that sea of sales, advertising, and AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So what (or who) is this blog for?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For me to be honest. Mainly things I can&#8217;t put on the Typeface website, a personal journal and digital footprint of sorts. It&#8217;s also a place to talk about design and photography, a home for photos, painting projects, illustrations and drawings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have had blogs before but nothing I&#8217;ve kept up with (good start).
