Writer Jerry Salley contributed a story about novelist C. Davis Enloe for this issue.

As co-founder of Good Art Co., a gallery and studio, J. Morgan McCallum has plenty of insight on the intersection of art and style.
“I’ve been thinking a lot about art and style as ‘taste’—something that cannot be artificially replaced,” she says. “Your taste is unique because it’s influenced by your past experiences and the community that you share it with, and I admire anyone who is leaning into that unapologetically personal perspective right now.”
