Therapy, but cheaper

There’s a little newsletter I write most Mondays. By name, Anything But Therapy, but honestly, some weeks it does get kinda close.

It’s short and personal. Notes on the week – concerts, photography, music, running, food, and whatever else is on my mind. Some weeks it’s a quiet reflection. Other weeks I just need to howl at the moon.

No ads. No sponsors. No spam. You can leave anytime, no hard feelings.

What to expect

  • Backstage notes from the photo pit – a lot of Siddharta, the occasional orchestras, young and up-and-coming bands.
  • Running and food, featuring the ongoing negotiation between the two.
  • Some strong opinions or that one long monologue, when a week earns it.
  • The honest version – the injuries, the hiatuses, the weeks where I simply run out of time, focus, or things to say.

It began as a Pilot back in December 2025, on the simple idea that blogging isn’t dead, it just got quieter. Eighteen-or-so episodes later, it’s still going. Mostly on time.
