Chronicles of a Depression, or: A Web Diary
This is my diary until October 17, 2007. From that day on, you can find my thoughts, now in Finnish, elsewhere.

Right. Another web diary. And in English, too - not the writer's mother tongue. However, there are particular reasons. Read them before you start on the rest, please.
Also, please take note that this is not a "blog" in the currently accepted sense of the word. This is not part of a general public conversation. I mostly write about private thoughts and feelings, and if you make the choice to go and read them, remember that it was your choice. I did not push it out there and into your eyes. It bugs me that I even have to make this sort of a disclaimer, but apparently it is necessary in these changing days. To be frank, I am currently considering a switch to some sort of a blog format to be better able to write and organise thoughts on books and other culture, and historical sewing, but I haven't decided anything yet. So far, this is it.
However, if you feel like giving private feedback, you are more than welcome to do so (friends and acquantainces especially, but that should be a given!). svaha at iki dot fi will get you there always.
Entries are always in reverse order, newest on top.
Here you can read about my costuming
projects.
