I'm Malissa, and this is my idea experiment.

Throughout my life, I've kept journals, diaries, planners, scrapbooks, and commonplace books. Most were private, and some were public. All were attempts to make sense of the world.

These notes are for me, but putting selected notes online is for you. These are notes to myself, and I'm still trying to make sense of things. The goal is to outgrow my comfort zone of control, structure, and rules. These ideas live together in a non-linear, messy, and magical way. But because genius doesn't happen in isolation, I'm glad you're here.

There is no table of contents here. There is no index or order. There are only sparks and links. This project is equal parts museum, library, and garden. It's a place for wandering.

You'll need to get onto the train somehow, so try here, or here, or here. You can also click here for a random starting point.

If you find magic here, I'd love to hear about it. If you have something you think would be comfortable living in this creative chaos, I hope you'll send it to me.

Better yet, I hope you'll create your own library and invite me to wander in it.
