My name is Jake Fee, and you are currently enjoying my personal website. You can click here if you want to learn more about me. Please, make yourself at home. If it's your first time here, get some popcorn and stop by the secret theater.

Stay as long as you like, and drop me a note before you go! I'd love to hear from you.

You can find more of me on my are.na profile, or on my instagram page.

You'll notice there are no advertisements, likes, feeds, pop-ups, clickbaits, or paywalls on this website. There are a few algorithms here and there but they mostly keep themselves entertained. I crafted this site by hand with the intention of making a calm, quiet, and friendly space for kind and brilliant people like you.

Some people call this sort of website a digital garden, because it is organic, slow-growing, and cultivates a tan and good-looking community. I think the metaphor is wonderful.


This website was made with hands.

You can check out my blog right here. It is titled Dreaming at the Edge of the Apocalypse.
