Howdy - thanks for taking the time to read this. I started this project because I was jealous of the writing culture I would read about in other cities. Austin has thriving scenes for music, dance, traditional arts, and a whole lot more. But I think the written word has an especially assertive quality to it, and I want to see more of that from the city. I've lived in Austin for over ten years, and finding communities and places to share writing, especially writing about life in Austin, has been consistently challenging.
I don't think this website will solve that problem. Nor do I even know if I looked for those other outlets hard enough. But I wanted to put something like this out there. The name was picked because it sounds cool, and because the definition felt like it fit Austin.
Thanks, again. I'm not sure when we'll do another issue, but if you'd like to submit, or even just chat, reach out to hello@cynosure.fyi
