Chess Journey: I've played chess over the board for a few years but am new to this vibrant online community. I am roughly a 1600 Elo but am primarily playing daily games as they give me more time to think and to learn. You can challenge me, but I'm limiting myself to 10 simultaneous games or less. I practice using lichess puzzles and chess.com bots, as well as over the board with friends.
Reading and Research: This is what I spend most of my time doing. I like to read fiction, Tolkien, and fantasy fiction. Most of what I read is history, architecture, engineering, and recently philosophy and psychology. I read digital books as it's easier with dyslexia; I also use a website that gives me a few million books available for free for life.
Communication: I don't use social media; if needed, contact me via chess.com messages, and I will try to respond quickly. Have a wonderful day.
