2026 Message From Our Publisher ...
Thanks for stopping in! After five+ years of celebrating First Coast creatives, FirstCoast.Life is evolving.
We’re still your guide to the people, places, and experiences that make our region special – but now with a distinct point of view. Mine.
COMING SOON: Through three new content pillars – Zenn Glenn (inspirational), Shuck and Awe (humorous photo stories), and The Spotlight (Glenn & Friends) – I’m joining the conversation I’ve been curating. Think of it as a variety show: I’m the host, but you’re still the stars.
From Dave Barry-style observations of beach parking chaos to quiet meditations on morning tides, from spotlighting local photographers to featuring neighborhood hidden gems – these pages reflect both my lens and our collective First Coast spirit.
Whether you’re a native or new to the area, welcome to the 2026 edition of your community hub. It’s still about celebrating everything good here. Just with more personality.
