Who We Are

The Pomegranate is run by a team of moms who have been reading and writing on the internet for an undisclosed amount of time (probably too much). Every Thursday we publish an essay about modern parenting.

Our Team

Amy Colleen writes about literature, life with wild little boys, and the humor of the everyday at Reading in the Margins. Her work has appeared in McSweeney’s, Pregnant Chicken and The Belladonna, as well as in far too many social media posts (you can find her most often these days at amycolleen.bsky.social). She has read everything Jane Austen ever wrote, but cannot bring herself to wholly finish the Terms and Conditions of anything.

Lucy Huber is a freelance writer and editor at McSweeney’s. She lives with her husband Matt and their two kids, Elliot (5) and Winifred (3) in Silver Spring, MD. You might know her from Twitter or from IRL, in either case she’s sorry for talking so much. If there is an opportunity to pet a horse, she will take it.

Why subscribe?

We publish at least two free posts every month. The remaining posts are behind a paywall because kids are expensive and we have bills to pay. You can subscribe for free to ensure every free post gets delivered to your inbox, or choose a paid subscription to get full access to the newsletter and publication archives.
