Hello, I’m Jihii, a San Francisco-based writer, journalist and mom.

These days, I make Mailed Editions—limited-run handmade books you can purchase here, exploring what becomes visible when work is no longer the organizing principle of a life. They grew out of Time Spent, a newsletter I wrote here from December 2019 to April 2026.

Every few weeks, I publish Notes on Care, which explore how we develop our capacity for care and our willingness to value it. Occasionally, I also share early reflections AI entering our personal lives.

Everything on Substack remains free to read. If you’d like to support the work, consider becoming a Sustaining Reader ($7/month).

I'm a writer interested in how life works outside of professionalized structures, currently writing about time, care and occasionally technology.
