About Paper Route
Real life deserves better than a feed.
A printed magazine for one person, every month, from the photos and stories of the people in their life.
Why it exists
The news that matters most is scattered.
A photo in a sister's camera roll, a story told once on the phone, a first day of school posted where one person sees it. The people who most want that news are often the least likely to be scrolling for it.
And a feed is a poor place to keep it: everything in it is gone by the next day.
What we're for
To bring the people, moments and stories someone cares about into one thing they can hold, read and keep.
Each issue is made for one reader. Their people send what's going on; we write it up, add reading chosen for what they follow, and print and mail it. One name on the cover, every month.
Why print
It stays on the table.
A magazine doesn't need a password, a charger or a notification. It gets read twice, picked up by whoever walks past, and kept.
A photograph printed large, with a name under every face, gets looked at in a way a thumbnail never does.
Where we're going
Less effort to share. Permission first.
