American Muse is a proudly American multimedia publisher established in 2025. It seeks to embody the American ideals through storytelling, art, and artistry, paying homage to those who came before and inspiring the next generation of young Americans.
AM offers a medium free from mainstream narratives while providing a voice to the average American. It seeks to combat the erosion of American cultural values while highlighting the seemingly ordinary aspects of everyday life.
In an age of short-form video vices, ever-advancing AI, and increasing global homogeneity, we find it now more vital than ever to pause and reflect on the personal, the regular, the inspiring, and the extraordinary in the ordinary of our lives and our country.
AM endeavors to preserve the sanctity of human expression and connection, only publishing artistic and written works created entirely by humans. We aim to be a bulwark against the tide of AI and the loss of appreciation for human creations and creators. We hope to inspire creativity and wonder for that which is found in small places and small acts, in the beauty spread wide across this nation.

Our publications are created by real people. Our writers and artists take inspiration from their lives and experiences as people and as Americans. We do not use artificial intelligence in the creation of our work. As a disclaimer, many of our writers and poets take creative liberties and their work is not meant to reflect exact realities. Nonfiction works will be appropriately labeled and are meant to coincide with true reality in their storytelling to the best of the author's abilities.
