A "Family" Christmas in New Orleans - Curt Hinson

Curt Hinson is a New Orleans–obsessed storyteller with a love for complicated characters, chosen family, and the messier sides of loyalty and love. Drawing inspiration from the city’s rhythm, queer nightlife, and the quiet truths people hide from one another, his work blends psychological tension with intimacy, humor, and heart. When he’s not writing, Curt can usually be found plotting his next story, curating the perfect soundtrack, or daydreaming about travel, reinvention, and the lives we build when no one is watching.
