Bio
sanspoint (sænz·ˈpɔɪnt)
Hybrid of Latin-root prefix and Middle-English root. Literally, “without point,” as in lacking a definitive topic of discussion or focus.
Richard J. Anderson is a writer based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He is a contributor for Kittysneezes, and Popshifter, with a focus on music. Sanspoint is his personal blog, with essays on topics as wide ranging as creative work, music and the arts, literature, technology, the mundanities of life, and the intersections of any and/or all of the above. He also is working on his first novel, tentatively titled My Dark Ages, after the Pere Ubu song. Richard is available for freelance writing and editing projects. For more information and to get a quote, contact him with details.
Richard also keeps a second site, “Want a Breath Mint?”, which features semi-daily posts of interesting content from around the web, though often focusing on videos of much-loved bands in concert or otherwise. He has other projects that may come down the pike in the future, including a weekly music-related podcast. He also maintains public profiles on several popular social networking sites, such as Twitter, Google+, Last.fm, and Flickr.
