My father passed away very suddenly and unexpectedly while I was preparing to launch this issue and while he wasn’t a big literary journal guy, he always supported my creative endeavors. I’d like to think he’d be proud of me for pushing forward and getting this work into the world.

Few of my crafts work out (thinking of the great holiday beading disaster of 2005 here) but making candles in cute-as-shit thrifted vessels turned out to be a dope way to make little gifts (and decompress) and so I am touting my victory all over the socials.
