What's this?

I HAVE THOUGHTS it a monthly-ish newsletter of writing, personal essays, cultural observations, and media criticism.

I’m Irene, and I created this newsletter to create more meaningful conversations in my life with the friends, thinkers, and artists I admire.

Subscribe to get full access to the newsletter and website so you never miss an update. Most updates are free, so if you can't afford to support it with dollars, that's ok, too.

Why subscribe?

Because you’re interested in art, media, technology, families, parenthood, and the creative life. Because you’re my friend and you want to keep in touch. Because you are also seeking inspiration and connection in an increasingly disconnected, polarized, dystopia. Because you like my writing and want to support it.

About me

I’m a multidisciplinary artist, reader and writer, question asker, creative strategist, mom, human. I have been making and writing stuff and putting it on the internet for over 30 years.
