Founders Letter

 

On Valentines Day, “Love Language” means something different to us.

More than a romantic gesture, it’s a call to action.
One you can enjoy alone:

Tonight, slip into some cozy clothes.
Order in from your favorite restaurant.
Fire up a spicy candle.
Turn on some inspiring tunes.
And crack open the beverage of your choice.

Then

Flip open your laptop,
(or, if you’re old school, 
peel back the cover of that college-ruled notebook,
and yank the top off your rollerball).

And Love that script Language of yours till the small hours.


Write on.
Nitza & Elizabeth
