Editor’s Note: Here at Five on the Fifth, we always endeavor to not only bring our readers the highest quality of writing, but to also make good on our promise & name by publishing five quality pieces each month. Some months, however, we can only curate four really strong pieces & this month is one of them. Seeing as how we’d never sacrifice quality for quantity, this month we’re bringing you four wonderful pieces that are so good, they more than make up for the missing fifth piece. Enjoy reading & happy 2024!
