That is happiness; to be dissolved into something complete and great.

Hello, I am Zach Mandeville and this is my homepage! I am a comedian, writer, and friend living in Wellington, Aotearoa New Zealand.

This space is my online home, garden, notebook, library, lab, altar, riverside picnic, and chill zone. It is my calm spot on the web and I hope you find some nice stuff here too.

You can read the original manifesto for this site to understand my inspiration.

If you want to keep in touch with me subscribe to my newsletter! It is an eclectic, entertaining ramble sent out seasonally.

You can also email me directly at webmaster[at]coolguy[dot]website

I'm also on Cuba and Dixon a lot and hang out at the Newtown Community Centre often too. If you see me and wave, I'll wave back, then prolly come over and talk to you. We can figure out somewhere to go from there.
