The 52 Mini-Essays Project

What it (was) all about

In May 2021, Doctor Waffle set forth to conquer her (and hopefully others’) pandemic fatigue and boredom by embarking on a new project. She would write a short weekly essay on topics solicited from friends, for an entire year. The topics flowed in, the essays flowed out, they got longer and more irregular and more off-topic, until eventually the whole enterprise wrapped up just about two years later with the group of 52 not-so-mini essays you see before you.

Doctor Waffle is proud of this endeavor, and proud of these essays, and hope you enjoy reading them.
