About The Line Magazine
The Line Magazine is a lifestyle brand that walks the line of creative nonfiction, highlighting the people and places that make us who we are. Launched in 2021, it is an exploration of people, culture, travel, and everything good in between that makes simple living rich.
The nonfiction lifestyle magazine that explores the people and places in our lives that make us who we are. From the roots of hometowns and country music, the magazine is a testament to capturing stories that are worth telling and putting them in front of readers whose lives will be better because of it. The theme of music dances across each page. You’ll find a song that pairs well with each article, like the perfect pairing of wine and cheese.
Three seasonal issues.
There are three issues of The Line Magazine: Fall, Spring, and Winter. Each is a nonfiction lifestyle magazine filled with cocktail recipes, places to visit when you have a little time to yourself, sweet reminders to keep us grounded in the midst of our busyness, all with the common line of highlighting real people as the backbone of every story.
Issue 02 of The Line Magazine consists of creative nonfiction stories about people and places. The magazine serves the purpose of illuminating the charm of what makes life beautiful and interesting within the context of our daily, simple lives. We believe there is always something to celebrate.
And, there is always a story worth telling.
Issue 03, the Winter edition of The Line Magazine, highlights nonfiction from various contributing writers focusing on an encompassing theme of the concept of our hometown. This issue explores the idea that, though we have different stories of where we’re from, we can all relate to having a hometown story.
Issue 01 of The Line Magazine, the inaugural issue, is an album and each article is a song. With every article, there is a song that correlates with the emotion, purpose, or inspiration of the story. Allow yourself to fall into the story, the way you might when losing yourself in a song. Let the feel of the story and the emotion of the song spark a correlation within your own story.
In the details
In every issue of The Line Magazine, the first page or front matter of the book is a sharp visual representation of something that is made up of lines. The purpose is to thread the them of telling stories of the lines we walk (or cross) every day, with a literal representation of the lines that are in our world.

In the details
Every article is paired with a song. We often say that music is the soundtrack of our lives and we can draw a line between the songs we listen to and what we’re going through.
With country music being an important inspiration behind The Line Magazine, music had to play a part in its pages. For the entire The Line playlist, to listen before, after, or while you read, scan the QR Code
