Brace yourself. You will not only find places to eat and hike and
dance, you will come to understand something about this city, ourselves,

The contributing writers live all over Houston,
scattered across the wards and suburbs, the innumerable cities
within the city. Vietnamese, Russian, Mexican, Irish, Pakistani,
African, rich, middle-class, poor, men and women - they are a
diverse bunch, representative of Houston. They worked with Miah
Arnold and Raj Mankad at the University of Houston. By participating
as a reader or writer, you are helping imagine community through
dialogue. And what could be more important?
