Friendship on Dialogbaaz

Friendship writing is unfashionable, which is exactly why it matters. The room is loud with love poems and grief monologues; the hand on your shoulder when you lose your first job, the friend who showed up at the airport without telling you they would, the cousin you have only argued with — those go under-written. The pieces collected here on Dialogbaaz make a case for friendship as a literary subject in its own right. We've gathered the highest-read friendship posts of the season, the creators who keep returning to the form, and the recent submissions worth your time. The submission box is open: write the small thing first, the funny thing second, the unexplainable thing third. That is the order that has worked for us.
