Freedom and Tyranny (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781960462886)

The Write Bridge presents two opposing ideas for creators and readers to delve into-seriously or in fun-in order stretch our imaginations.

In each edition, readers are encouraged to "mind the gap" as writers and artists explore topics that broaden our thinking and help us move beyond boundaries.

In a 1936 Esquire article entitled "The Crack Up," author F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote:

"Before I go on with this short history, let me make a general observation-the test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in the mind at the same time, and still retain the ability to function. One should, for example, be able to see that things are hopeless and yet be determined to make them otherwise. This philosophy fitted on to my early adult life, when I saw the improbable, the implausible, often the 'impossible, ' come true."

We hope the themes for The Write Bridge Journal Summer 2025 edition, Ideals and Illusions, will offer lessons and comic relief on our human shortcomings and aspirations.
