A Storm Council Member receives the finished body of work.

A Council Member is invited inside the continuing development of that body of work — closer to the research, thinking, questions, evidence, and conversations from which new Storm Council works emerge.

Council Members receive:

  • Everything included with a Storm Council Membership

  • Exclusive Council Member essays, briefings, audio, and video

  • Early access to new books, chapters, and works in development

  • Behind-the-scenes access to research, source material, unresolved questions, and the development of new Storm Council works

  • Council Member-only Chat and discussions

  • Invitations to private live Council sessions and Q&A

  • Opportunities to participate in discussions surrounding works in development and future Storm Council projects

  • Recognition as a Council Member supporting the continued development and preservation of the Storm Council body of work

Join the Council — $500/year.

Join The Storm Council

Storm Council is not a subscription to a single book, newsletter, or series.

It is access to an entire and expanding body of original work examining consequential storms through the vulnerabilities that existed before them, the decisions made as they approached, the systems tested by their arrival, and the consequences that followed.

The complete library is available from the day you join. New books, chapters, audio, video, research, and discussion continue to expand it.

You can follow Storm Council for free. You can become a Member and unlock the complete Library. Or you can join the Council and become part of the continuing work behind it.

Choose your level of membership and enter the Storm Council.
