Welcome! This is a site I made to keep track of my progress and to evaluate myself as a player. The site serves the purpose of keeping me somewhat interested in the chess world. I've been losing track of it recently. Perhaps I should go back to the basics of just enjoying a puzzle or a study or pondering on an annotated game—not worrying about winning or being right or ratings. Just enjoying the subtleties and the nuances that arise...enjoying chess in its purest form—as an abstract art that is good for the mind.

Here you'll find my ongoing experiments, hard-earned lessons, and evolving understanding of the 64 squares. Whether you're a fellow traveler on the chess path or just passing through, I hope these digital annotations spark your own appreciation for the game's infinite depth.
