I’ve been writing stories, singing songs, and drawing pictures ever since I was little. Since my parents brought home their first Mac, I’ve had a thing for computers. So far, I’ve managed to keep up with all those things.

 

I was born and raised in Atlanta, Georgia, where I learned the importance of the civic freedom to disagree. I graduated from Brown University in 2009, completing an independent concentration in Music & Mind. That showed me the awesome responsibility held by those who control the discourse.

 

Now I live in Oakland, California. I'm a working writer, which is wild, and I'm learning to build websites. I've been going to Burning Man since 2008, and now it's a yearly ritual for me.

 

I’m working on my craft. I haven’t quite figured out my message or my language yet, but I’m having fun experimenting.

I'm building a new publication called The Daily Portal. I also write for Burning Man and am the editor of Tales From The Playa. I used to be a staff writer at ReadWrite. You can find links to all my work on jonmitchell.me.
