Hey y’all!

It’s Carmen here. I’m the managing editor of the Isolation Journals, and I hosted the May meeting of the Hatch, our virtual creative hour for paid subscribers.

During our gathering, I talked about Austin, Texas, and two-stepping, we read a passage from Samantha Harvey’s strikingly poetic and philosophical novel Orbital, and we reflected on astronauts, the overview effect, and a home away from. Below you’ll find a video replay along with a written transcript, as well as the reading, three creative prompts, the Isolation Journals chat, and more!

As always, we love to hear from you, so if you wrote something you want to share, please do so in the chat or in the comments section below.

Happy hatching!

Carmen
