Reparative Reading

Reparative Reading is an invitation to gather, read, converse, and connect with one another and our curiosity for all that is inspiring and replenishing in our world. 

It is a balm for the paranoid reading incited by social media, news headlines etc. all too present in our everyday lives.

We will gather around a publicly curated collection of short writings, silently read, and then participate in small and full group conversations on “what we are finding out” through the gift of these pieces.

Contributing to the project

If you would like to contribute to the project, please choose one piece of writing or excerpt from any genre that is approximately 1500 words (a ten minute read), and is a piece of writing that you love, hold dear, that excites, hits hard or is essentially beautiful - writing/writers you would like to gift to others.

Please email the piece as a PDF to fragment31@gmail.com with the subject line ‘Reparative Reading contribution’.

It will be added to the communal archive of texts for future iterations of the project.
