Eclecticism

My public writing tends to be mostly about education technology, and the craft of nonfiction writing. My interests are more varied than that brief description would suggest, but to avoid muddying the waters I either attempt to skew an article so that it fits into one of those categories, or not publish it at all.

Therefore, after a year of weighing up the pros and cons I decided to start a publication on Substack. It's called Eclecticism, and so far I've published articles on there about McCarthyism, National Introverts Week, The Bartleby Response, a (very) short story and others. There is also a sub-section called Head of Department in which I have published, and will continue to publish, articles about, erm, being a head of department. Plus another section about word play, OuLiPo.

Some aspects of the publication, like being able to comment on all articles, and extras like spreadsheets, are available only to paying subscribers, but most of the articles published so far are free.
