The writers behind this newsletter.
"Here, take this / My seat, my pen, my heart" harrietcorvine.com
Writer, musician, and feral philosopher. I craft poetry, short fiction, rogue songs, and offbeat truths from the crossroads of weird and wonder. Refined for public use, but still a little wild under the hood. www.primalbeet.com
Philosopher-comic hybrid. I dive into truth, mortality, and meaning—then crack a joke about socks and the void. Half deep thinker, half chaos goblin. Serious when it counts, absurd when it helps. Duality is the brand.
Reader, Thinker, Writer, Poet // Operations Manager, Bridwell Library & Press, SMU // Graduate Student, MLS Organizational Dynamics, SMU // US Navy Vet // Mom of 3
