<p>
This is the index page for my writing. Each link leads to a different thing that I've written!
- Writing happens to be one of the better ways to express logically structured ideas, and it also
- happens to be something I find relatively easy. For those reasons, I prefer communicating through
- the written (or spoken) word than through mathematics or art.
+ Language in general tends to be fairly efficient for communicating certain types of thought, and
+ while I typically prefer spoken language, written language enables more carefully structured logical
+ argumentation--which is useful for philosophy and mathematics.
