Where everyday life is full of glimmers of ordinary magic
Stories from the Village
From the Inn on the Lake to the Farmerâs Market, from the bookshop in downtown to the cabin in the woods, enjoy soothing stories that lean into small pleasures and celebrate community. Based on the enormously popular podcast Nothing Much Happens, these family-friendly stories are an antidote to anxiety and a dose of simple goodness.
