Welcome!
I'm happy to have you.
This is Brief Encounters, a sporadically updated blog by a millennial music fan with the taste of your stepdad. It’s fun I swear! (And named after the great British film Brief Encounter.)
Why substack? I was sick of only being the quippiest gal at the party — I wanted to actually claim the mantle of “writer.” Note: The last time I had a regularly published column was in college, when I produced a batch of unhinged reportage called “Sex Psych.” If you subscribe, I might just bring it back…
Anyway, thank you for reading. Comment if you wanna get into it; I’m happy to engage!
xoxo
