Topher Scott is the creator and editor of Way4word, a forum for seeking meaningful paths forward following the events of 11/9. Country doctor by day, political junkie the rest of the time, Topher created Way4word as a refuge for those shocked and dismayed by the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
