Red Hand Agency is the online studio of editor, writer and sometimes documentary-maker Tom Bass. It presents both creative prose and paid editorial work.

The stories here represent years of meticulous thought, journaling, reading and wonder, an approach he takes into the personal and professional sphere. Read and explore at your leisure the journeys and stories that may cover or combine topics like bicycles, coming of age, conflict, crime, education, foraging, futurism, governance, literature, markets, media, monsters, popular music, propaganda, public affairs, theory or underdogs. Contact Tom Bass if you have any questions regarding new stories or republishing.
