Shea Corrigan

I’m not going to provide a bio, because I think it’s kind of irrelevant, honestly, and also because I am 90 percent certain, at least to start, that those of you subscribing already know me on a personal level. If not, I trust your reading comprehension has allowed to you to glean the most important details from what you’ve read thus far. The dog in the artwork, made by Ashley Young for when I left by job in journalism, is my sweet baby Jack. Everything else you need to know about me will come with time.
