I no longer believe art can save the world, but I believe still that it can save me. So in the face of chaos, misinformation, hatred & ignorance, I'm going to make more art, experience more, share more, pay for more & publish more. I started this in darkness & it'll continue to be my light. 🖤🤍
I recognize the price may put it out of reach for some, but the 2026 will deliver a whopping 12 books (including Stanchion's 1st two novels), 4 exclusive gifts, advance PDFs & more.

I'd love to have you as a member. Here's a sneak peek at 4 Spring books!

A photograph from Stanchion Magazine history. There are shower beers and then there's a birdshit beer. Significantly less enjoyable, I'd guess.

"If I regret one thing, it's that I never managed to make you see how wonderful you are."

I cannot stop thinking about this line, this scene, this film. I cry every time.
I think it's the finest writing/the best written film I've ever seen.

Such a beautiful night celebrating the 10th anniversary of @thirtywestph.com! When I entered the indie lit world 5 years ago, Josh at Thirty West was 1 of the first people I saw as doing things the right way. He continues to inspire me to make Stanchion better for authors & readers.

If you're a writer, I'd go so far as to say it's essential reading to develop your craft, to dig deep into your characters and their emotions (as well as your own), and to go eyeball-close with your line edits!
