THE NINTH ARCHIVE

Yours

EIGHT ARCHIVES WRITTEN

The ninth is not.

The ninth belongs to you.

It is a space for whatever you choose to place there — or not.

YOUR ARCHIVE. YOUR WAY

You might write a story.

A sentence.

A list.

A question.

A memory.

A promise.

You might draw.

Paint.

Stitch.

Photograph.

Dance.

WHY THE NINTH IS YOURS

Every archive in the book invites you to recognise something in yourself.

Every reflection asks you to listen.

Every ordinary act gives you an opportunity to choose.

The Ninth Archive is where the book steps back.

It leaves a space in which your voice, your experience and your choices can belong entirely to you.

THE LIVING ARCHIVE

Following the book’s release, we hope women will choose to share their Ninth Archives here - becoming the 9th woman and creating a Living Archive together.

THE ARCHIVIST’S NINTH ARCHIVE

The book has an ending. My story doesn’t.
