Winter Ends — 2013

Let's start outside. Each cover features a pair of mirrored original illustrations by contemporary artist, Robert Farkas.

Inside we are proud to introduce our first spoken word selection, “A Walk Through Belmont,” by Lisa Mecham. We are touched to have received this electric performance and that we are able to publish it alongside so many other inspired works.

Also, be on the look out for an interview with Lauren Groff by Lauren Groff—our first attempt at (shamefully) propositioning a (very gracious) author with the notion of interviewing herself.
