To Write a Refuge

This project is believed to be defunct. (April 2026)

About

To be in America in 2025 is many things - disorienting, anxiety-inducing, overwhelming, hopeless. We all need the occasional refuge, the safe place to smile again, to see joy and beauty before recharging and gathering our courage - whether that's the courage to protest, to practice civil disobedience, to believe in the good in the people around us, or simply to brave the wastelands of social media. This is a place for beauty.
