We are a community of writers and changemakers, bookworms and journalers, activists and artists. Whoever you are, however you found us, welcome. I’m so glad you’re here.

I’ve spent the last decade writing tens of millions of dollars worth of grants to resource mental health research, food access, anti-violence campaigns and programs, immigration justice, refugee services, housing access, and culturally specific health and wellness programs. I’ve been a writer since kindergarten, my life benchmarked by thousands of journal entries, essays, short stories, songs, poems, and handwritten letters. I have seen what the written word can do, for humans, communities, organizations, and movements. I know you have too.

In this space, we share stories, poems, essays, musings. We find joy in resistance. We wield our creativity for change. We write what resonates.
