When I need a tool, I often build one.

I am a software engineer who enjoys creating websites and practical tools around the projects that matter to me.

Writing tools

Managing a growing story

As Not Meant to Survive grew, I built software to track chapters, characters, reader comments, continuity, statistics, promotional linkbacks, and how readers move through the story.

Websites

Making information useful

I enjoy building websites that turn scattered information into something easier to search, understand, and use. The exact tools change, but the goal stays practical.

The approach

Build, test, and improve

I approach software the same way I approach writing and quilting. Start with a real problem, build a useful version, learn from it, and continue improving it.
