Paper + Presence

Jeannie Ewing and I are quietly beginning something called Paper + Presence—a handwritten story exchange rooted in slowness, reverence, and human connection.

• It’s not a call for content.

• It’s not a project optimized for clicks.

• It’s an invitation.

In a time of swipes and scrolls, we’re making space for paper, for memory-keeping and for real mail.

This August, we’ll be inviting a small circle of thoughtful humans to receive a handcrafted token and a prompt in the mail.

What they return to us won’t be content. It will be memory. Presence. A piece of themselves.

The stories will live in a quiet corner of the internet we’re building together. But more than that, they’ll live in envelopes, in handwriting, in our hearts.

This is not a project for scale.

It’s a project for soul.

For now, this is just a soft announcement that something thoughtful is underway.

One envelope. One story. One person at a time.
