About Northbeamm, a collective place for Stories. Creativity. A space to think, feel, and write.

Welcome to Northbeam, a collective creative writing project that publishes short stories, explores the craft of storytelling, and reflects on what it means to be creative in a world that often asks us to be anything but.

I’m John. I’ve spent years in sustainability consulting, operations, and leadership, but writing has always been a quiet constant. Now I’m giving it a louder voice.

Here you’ll find:

  • Original short stories, fiction that reflects the human condition, with all its grit and grace
  • Essays on creativity, discipline, and the highs and lows of making things
  • Notes from the writing desk, thoughts on craft, character, and the stories we carry.

If you’ve ever wrestled with a blank page, fallen in love with a sentence, or wondered what happens next, this space is for you.

Northbeam is about light, clarity, and direction. It’s a creative compass — for me, and maybe for you too
