The Feral Stack

By Summer Koester

Spicy, unfiltered cultural commentary that zooms out while digging deep... from an award-winning writer and cultural anthropologist.

Summer's stacks are thought provoking, often make me smile from her sly humor, while also leave me going, "wait what" and pondering long after i read the initial post.

Auraist: picking the best-written books

By Sean

Trusted by 40K+ readers, we pick the best-written books from US and UK recent releases and prize shortlists, and publish in-depth articles by their authors on prose style. Plus the satirical series The Demon Inside David Lynch.

whether you are a writer, a reader, or simply curious about how a book comes into being you will find something to peak your interest in the Auraist. for me i like reading about how folks come up with ideas and then get them onto the page and as completed works...hint, it is different for everyone.
