About Kevin

「genYchina」是Kevin独立创作的博客,大部分文章关于年轻人的潮流文化和生活方式,然而稍稍令人猝不及防的是,当时的「年轻人」——Gen Y(Y世代,80年至90年之间出生的人)这一说法现在听上去已经有些年代感了,毕竟眼下是Gen Z当道的时代……不过,Kevin写的许多文章,时至今日仍然能给我们带来一些新的启示和灵感。撇开文章的选题和内容不谈,Kevin直白干净的写作风格和对「long form」文体的偏爱绝对符合目前独立创作的新风潮。节目中,Kevin对许久没能更新表示遗憾,同时无比期待某天能回归创作第一线。
Kevin将创作内容和筛选值得花时间的内容视为生
