Rorschach Reviews
Like most art forms, a Rorschach personality test shows us something abstract and allows us to determine our own interpretation of what it is and what it means to us. This blog is my attempt to explain what I see when I look at these metaphorical movie ink blots, and I hope that along the way I can learn what you see from time to time as well.
