As an academic, I spend a lot of my time preparing for class or writing. However, I often develop ideas that don't fit the my current course or project. I will think to myself, "That's an interesting idea. I'll have to return to it later". Then, I never do. I created this blog to catalogue those ideas.

My New Blog: "The Craft of Living"


Hi, everyone.  It's been a few years since I wrote for this blog.  I've spent a lot of time teaching, finishing off my dissertation, and having a couple of kids.

Instead of coming back to it, though, I've started a new project called, "The Art of Living".  The goal of that blog is consider the contributions that ancient philosophy can make to our lives.  It's a combination of philosophical reflections, like those on "The Lyceum", as well as practical considerations of how to apply their insights.

You can find the new blog here: The Craft of Living.  I hope to see you there.
