It’s not just what they’ve done so far. It’s not just that they know all my most embarrassing stories, or what I know about them that I don’t know how I know. It’s the alchemy of the group itself, the chemical reaction of these ten personalities and personhoods that have made this year one for the record books.

This book is a celebration of their hard work and creative output this year. And – if you are so lucky that they have handed it to you as an invitation to peruse – their stories will get in your head; their stanzas will linger in your system. Enjoy!
