To be (perhaps obnoxiously) literal, “warmly,” is a sign-off I started using in an effort to come to terms with the idea that it’s impossible to live up to the ‘cool’ of the places I was finding myself in. And that maybe some of us are meant to embrace it with all the warmth and care in the world.

At some point, as if written in the stars, ‘warmly’ became a digital magazine parading in the form of a newsletter. It became a place for discovering and sharing bright creativity, curious wonderment, and awe-stitched experiences. It manifested as a community of people creating, sharing, and discovering from a place of love. I hope this space can continue to live on in the form of digital, print, and irl platforms in which we can all share in the firey warmth and love we find around us.
