Dear Katie; dear Jack.

I realize I’m a little late to the table with Nanoka; it’s always been a habit of mine to find something later on after it’s been released and hyped and faded ever-so-slightly. Strange, because I love the both of you, and if I ever get the opportunity to meet either one of you, drinks are on me.

But reading this little magazine you put together feels like pulling out a loved one’s photo album without them around, knowing that it’s okay to look through it, but still feeling sheepishly intimate about it. It’s like seeing someone’s journal, while intentional, you’re seeing thoughts and moments that are normally kept secret and hid, so this is strange and exhilarating and wonderful, and while I wish I’d picked it up sooner, I’m glad I finally got it at all.

As per request once upon a time, I’m posting images of me reading naked. I couldn’t decided which of these I liked more, so I posted them both. While reading and photographing, I listened to She Wants Revenge and Garbage, and the intimate, sexy, bare reading experience felt almost (almost) like I was there with the both of you. So here’s to the both of you, photographic inspirations to me, and also inspirations as human beings. May this Friday find you both smiling and doing what you will.

This is awesome, because in the first picture, I’m imaging DONG on FACE.

Hahaha. Whose face? Mine or Jack’s? ONLY CKBURCH KNOWS FOR SURE.
