no.good.home is ...
a press, an archive, a playspace, a celebration.
when you enter a friend's room and catch a glimpse of your art on their wall. like that.
we <3 lots of stuff, but especially translation, collaborative writing, and gifs.
the line between yours and ours, art and not. it blurs.
play means not work, but can be as rigorous or more. mining what's hard can be part of play, too.
some of our stuff is made by hand. some is pure digital. everything virtual is free. everything physical is cheap. no.good.home. is no home for fetishized fossils.
art ain't neutral. we're here to pick sides.
this isn't a business. this isn't a non-profit. this is just whatever it becomes.
we reject shame as a deterrent to self-publishing. we reject perfection as a requisite for sharing.

our "we" means ...
us and, well, you too!
