Matthew Argyle
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA
A 40 year old guy living in the suburbs with a reasonably well-behaved daughter, a supportive spouse, and a dog I tolerate for the families sake. I'm a curious person who is "ok" at a lot of things and master of none. I spent time in the U.S. Army where I was once described as "the easiest guy to be around." That probably says less about my innate agreeableness and more about an ingrained habit of meeting expectations. Despite a deathly allergy to high-control systems like the US Army, Corporate America, and Mormonism, I've been a zealot for all of them. Writing is part of my quest to learn, unlearn, and to understand.

Notes on noticing life's moments.
Clarke Scott
Australia
I am an Australian filmmaker, writer, and former Buddhist monk whose work explores the nature of self, consciousness, truth, meaning, and lived experience. My work reflects a lifelong search for truth and meaning found in those fleeting moments of reflection when we see through the mask we present to the world and into the heart of being. I approach writing as a way of noticing those moments.
David Glass
San Francisco, CA
Have you seen the movie 3 Idiots? When I saw it in college I was glowing for 3 weeks after. It was the first time I felt my own playful curiosity role modeled that strongly and it changed me. Things I love: learning, sharing what I learn, nature, books, movies, meditation, the gym, board games I'm excited to find community in this group and to pour love into my writing. I grew up in Atlanta, Ga, USA and now live in San Francisco. I've been building an edTech startup for the past 3 years. Now in the acquisition process and embracing divergency and serendipity as I enter a new era.
