Who's Tiny Dust
I've never been very good at self-introduction. It's just hard to condense years of life into a few sentences. But since space isn't the issue here, I'll try to be both expressive and concise.
I had a slew of titles before, and I used to write for work, about work. But after 12 years, I hit a wall and couldn't produce a single word. Then in 2025, I decided to try something new - build just for me. In this process, I found my voice of writing again, but this time only on things that bring me joy.
I write in both English and Chinese, depending on the topic. I also write on Substack, but this place is more like an unfiltered view into my inner world, which is why it's an independent little site (no large platforms pls)!
I'm still in the process of building this space out, so be sure to check back :).
从前的主业是在科技行业用设计为别人打工。2025年是我的转折点,我开始更好奇如何打造一个属于自己的事业。
2025年底我开始用中文公开写作,最开始在Substack,现在移居这个完全属于自己的小角落。 这里记载的东西会更杂,也会用中英两种语言换着写,因为我希望它能成为一个完全不受限的、能真实记录自己的地方。
基于这个新“家”刚建成没多久,在未来的日子里我会持续更新。欢迎随时回来查看更新。
