    About Handwritium

    Let’s skip the part where I tell you I’m doing this out of the kindness of my heart. I’m not.

    Handwritium is a personal project. It’s a website where I put publicly available books, data, and audio files. They are free to read, free to listen to, and I don’t use invasive ads.

    Why? Because I find the modern internet, with its constant tracking, blinking banners, and data-harvesting, annoying. I built this because I wanted a cleaner version for myself, and I figured I might as well host it for everyone else while I’m at it.

    The “Mission” (If You Can Call It That)

    There is no grand vision here. I just like things to be organized and technically sound.

    • No Ads: Not because I’m a saint, but because they look like garbage and slow down my site.

    • Privacy: I’ve gone to the trouble of coding the site to respect “Do Not Track” signals. This is mostly because I enjoy the technical challenge of building a “clean” platform and I don’t care about your data anyway.

    • Content: Most of what you see here is grabbed from places like Project Gutenberg or LibriVox. I format it, clean it up, and stick it here so it’s easier to find.

    The Creator

    If for some reason you want to know more about me, my other projects, or my life in general, you can find all of that on my personal site:

    The Bottom Line

    I’m not trying to change the world. I’m a guy with a server. If you like the books, great. If you don’t, that’s fine too. I’m going to keep building it anyway because I like how it looks when it’s finished.
