Pick one, two, a dozen, all of them, or the concept itself. Spend some time with them. Think about what it is that only you can say about them. We want an authentic meditation, not a regurgitation of news clips and sound bites.

After only a few days in office, Donald Trump has already signed a whole host of executive orders on a wide range of topics and to varying degree of import. We want our contributors to use these executive orders as the basis of a creative, literary essay.
