We believe that the web’s words are thought-provoking, but its context is not. We’ve all bookmarked articles and saved links, only to lose them in the endless deluge of the internet.

That’s why we’re making a book—a real-world, tangible, annotatable, throwable, sharable book. This website offers a window into our work in progress.

What’s the book about? We’re curating the internet’s answer on how to live the good life. “Curating” because rather than weaving a tapestry from scratch, this book builds on the thoughts of others. Think of it as an anthology—or better yet, a quilt. Short and medium-form essays from various authors will serve as patches, with gentle transitions stitching the pieces together.

What does this mean for the authors we feature? Copyright protects internet writing, which means the quality of this book depends on our ability to obtain authors’ permissions to print their work. To accomplish this, we’re using this website to demonstrate our intentions and commitment to thoughtful collaboration.

Thanks for checking in! We hope this site is a cozy place to follow along as we work. Here is the master list of pieces we’re considerings. More generally, feel free to explore, break things, and let us know if there are any writings you’d love to see in print!
