About Nimbus
Nimbus # 1 is a collection of recent work on intimacy, distance, and closeness.
Doors and portals are in the right hand margin, like the cat door at the end of this page. You can use top navigation to travel between pages. Or, click on the doors to be transported from one piece to the next. It is a different journey each time.
If on mobile, try landscape or zoom out to see the doors.

A Nimbus issue is not a finished product but a processional structure that nudges the pieces towards their future versions.
For writers, Nimbus is an opportunity to be in revisive dialogue. For readers, it is a site of curated reading–a place for discovery of connection and meaning between pieces, across genres.

Total Facts Known About Nimbus
Writing is very lonely work. But it is also one of the fewest assured portals between one self and the other. Art exists for the communion and connection it creates in the world.
