A Divine Source of Inspiration

Soul Food Cafe

The Soul Food Cafe, built by Heather Blakey, was inhabited by an international group of writers and artists whose global mission was to promote writing and art-making as a daily practice through the use of interactive web-based technologies such as blogging and e-mail groups. Soul Food remains a wonderful resource. Using the Wayback Machine link you can access all the features of this quirky world.
