I wish you all a very happy 2026. Here’s to hoping we can make it a good one!
The Tales of Ink and Light are a collection of poems, short stories (fiction or documentary) or essays that explore the strange beauty of our world. Les Contes d’encre et de lumière is the French version of the Tales of Ink and Light.
