Untitled Thought Project is Catherine Lacey’s untitled project of thought.

Here’s a photo of Annemarie Schwarzenbach and a very good dog.

Untitled Thought Project is a reader-supported email series.

Some of these emails are 144-word essays. Some are longer. Topics are various, though they’re mostly about writing in general, or writing fiction, or (more vaguely) making sense of life.

In the first few months of 2023 I was writing a series about things that strangers had lost and those essays are archived for the paying subscribers.

The sculpture in my avatar is by Kiki Smith.

Here you'll find 144-word essays sent every few weeks to everyone, and longer personal essays, sometimes pay-walled, monthly or more often.
