Tess says: "Sacramento has been the place I have lived since I was 18. I thought one day I would move on to a bigger, better place, but the longer I stayed the more Sacramento grew on me. This place is full of beauty, a beauty that goes unnoticed. There are words and stories here that go unheard too. In From Sac, readers will see and read Sacramento’s beauty." Elison says: "Having lived in Sacrame
nto for over 30 years, I've come to realize that Sacramento is the ugly stepchild of California: we're not L.A., we're not San Diego, we're not San Francisco, and the best thing about us is we are in the middle of the Bay and Tahoe. There's much more to Sac than that, however, including the vibrant writing community that live, breathe, and write in the Sacramento Valley. With From Sac, we're hoping to showcase that talent." Jon says: "Sacramento is nothing more than a big town that has yet to accept the fact that it is not a huge metropolis. It will never be L.A., or New York, or even San Francisco. And there is nothing wrong with that. At From Sac, we want to focus on the small, the overlooked, the real. The valley is filled with brilliant writers and artists, and we want to expose that brilliance here."
