This issue's been out for a couple of days, but we're not even gonna lie, y'all, this post is a bit late because of well, everything. So our only question is: how are you caring for yourself?

Any kind of joy you find, take it, friend. If that's reading some KTQ? Hey, we love that, and we love you!

Do you love poetry or is nonfic more your jam? Do you have eclectic taste? Are you into history-- the weird, secret, but most importantly, true kind? Come read with us!

Here to remind you to care for yourself. Walk through flowers. Have an iced coffee. Read a poem. Breathe.

More daylight hours just means more time to read our Spring issue, right? Is that how that works? No? Oh well, read it anyway!
