Selected Memories: Five Years of Hippocampus Magazine is a celebration of where we’ve been and a testament to the power of telling true stories. Since we launched our online creative nonfiction journal in 2010, we’ve published more than 800 pieces of creative nonfiction from more than 600 emerging and established writers. We’re proud of our contributors, and we admire their bravery for sharing pieces of themselves through memorable creative nonfiction.

This creative nonfiction anthology is a representation of our first five years. It’s filled with more than 30 stories that moved us, made us laugh, made us cry, made us want to read them again.
