Letters, not a feed.

The Grokkist letter Once a month. Danu's letter, what's alive in the community, the Snackables. The Press New writing as it's published, and letters from the editor.

What's the difference?

The Grokkist letter is Danu's monthly letter about the whole Grokkist community: what people are making and thinking about, gatherings coming up, and a handful of Snackables, small good things worth your time.

The Press sends you new writing from this site as it's published (essays, talks, stories, books in instalments), plus a monthly letter from the editor. You can narrow it to the Realms you care about.

Choose either or both. Each email has a one-click way out.

One click to leave, any time. We never share your address.

An experiment

The Press, mapped.

Every piece placed by the Press's reading of it. Choose what goes across and what goes up, and see what gathers where. This is an experiment, and it will be wrong in places. That's part of the point: here's why we do it ↗

Each dot is one piece. Choose a question for each direction, and pieces that answer alike gather together. Hover or tap a dot to see what it is; click it to read.

How close to the experience would you like it?

Slide from writing done in the thick of things to writing that's had years to settle. Six pieces from that spot appear below, a different handful each time.
