Live by the light you're given.

The north doesn't let you ignore the seasons. Oblenor is about learning to live with them.

About Oblenor

Slow stories for fast lives.

The north doesn't let you ignore the seasons. The light changes so dramatically that you either fight it or learn to live with it. Oblenor is about learning to live with it: eating, resting, travelling and spending time outside in step with the time of year.

We are a small team of writers who love long walks, strong coffee and short, honest stories. Our stories are written for anyone, anywhere, who wants a little more rhythm in their year. You don't need to live in the north to read them.

Pitches are always welcome, in any season. So are seasonal rituals of your own.
