Craig D. Lounsbrough
“Although it might state otherwise, I don’t think that the world finds anything compelling that’s always shifting to adjust to wherever the world’s going. I think that what the world finds compelling is something so indisputably enthralling that the world is always shifting to adjust to it. And the only thing that I know that has both the power and the character to be that enthralling is God.”
Craig D. Lounsbrough

“I needed a more interesting life.
I could start by learning something.
I could start with the starter.”
Robin Sloan, Sourdough
