These Texts is a collection of messages I’ve received from people I know, or knew at some point. The messages are organized chronologically.

While the messages date back as far as 2014, I began collecting and posting them in September 2016. The project is somewhat inspired by Jamie Livingston’s Some Photos of That Day, Miranda July’s We Think Alone, and the slew of similar stuff already out there.

Questions, comments, concerns? Text me.

I don't want to be a bother so if that's the case then I hear ya, but otherwise, as I said a while back you're a quality human that I'd like to spend time with 💫
